Description
Founder Tsjomme Zijlstra's idea to start his own brewery came to him after his time in England. He started to brew his own beer at home and decided in 2014 that he wanted go bigger. He met Menno and John, owners of Brouwerij de Molen in Bodegraven, and told them his story. They taught him how to brew with one of their old brewing installations. Kaapse Brouwers was born.

Bottle, gift from Pam. Clear amber/ruby body with a medium off-whtie head. Steady carbonation. Nice lacing. Aroma of caramel, toffee apple and kiwi fruit. Flavour of resin, blood orange, sweet malts and a bitter finish. Medium body with a very oily texture. Soft fizz. A really solid IPA - bold and bitter yet very drinkable.
