Description
Oprichter en één van de brouwmeesters van Huisbrouwerij Klein Duimpje is Erik Bouman. Hij brouwt al sinds 1996 zijn eigen bieren en in 1997 startte hij met zijn Huisbrouwerij Klein Duimpje. In 2011 wist Bouman het oude pand van een bollenkweker in Hillegom te verwerven. In de zomer van 2012 werd het proeflokaal geopend en de brouwerij in gebruik genomen. In 2013 werd de naam van de brouwerij gewijzigd van Huisbrouwerij Klein Duimpje naar Brouwerij Klein Duimpje.

Bottled (BB 03/2009)
Orange color, decent off-white head. Grainy, light spicey and fruity aroma. Coriander and saaz hops dominate slightly alcoholic flavor. There is also some mango and pepper. Spicey finish. Quite full-bodied with long bitter aftertaste. Nice almost triple-like brew, name is misleading.

Bottled. Pinkish orange colour, small beige head. Aroma is fruits, yeast and slight sweet notes of alcohol. Some spices also along with caramel. Flavour is caramel, toffee, yeast and nice sweeter malts. A very wellbalanced flavour, which hides the alcohol totally.

Bottled. Dark ruby red colour, small white head. Aroma is weak, malty and caramellish with hints of also coffee, roast and a bit chocolate. Flavour is roasted malts, chocolate, nuts and some cookies. Quite watery to the palate, but otherwise it was very nice when being served at about 13-14 C degrees.
