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.

Goudkleurig bier zonder schuim. Smaak is vrij bitter en kruidig met iets van hout, gras en druiven. Helaas vind ik de combinatie van het zure van de druif met de bittere hop wat minder. Ook komt het bier wat waterig over.

37,5cl Fles van De Laat. Zwarte kleur, beige kraag. Whisky, fudge, brownie, hint van hout, licht boozy, koolzuur is wat aan de harde kant waardoor het licht mineralig wordt, gebrande mout, hint van koffie, chocolade, medium zoet, beetje Belgische stout met whisky. Medium body. Prima, gewoon lekker.

330 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.9%. Slightly hazy golden colour, moderate to small white head. Pleasant aroma of citric and herbal hops, also notes of tropical fruits, pine and spruce. The flavour has the same elements, with a moderate bitterness, well balanced and nice to drink.

Little cloudy orange blond beer, small aery irregular off-white head, unstable, non adhesive.

Taste: pretty herbal start, bitter, hoppy, grains, some cloves, yeasty character, some banana, cookie dough, a bit chemical, something off. Aftertaste: dry, bitter, autolyse, bitter, banana peel, a bit chemical finish, oxidized stuff, not a big fan.

Can, 4.5%. Fruity aroma, hint of bubble gum. Almost clear light copper colour. Small white head. The flavour is fruity with a fairly high bitterness, and slightly astringent. Bubble gum notes, perhaps tropical fruits. Yeasty finish.

33cl blik van ONP5. Troebel bleekgele kleur, witte kraag. Citroen, limoensap, redelijk zuur, fris, veel citrus dus, niet per sé heel hoppig, meer sour ipa-achtig. Deed me in de verte ook wel wat aan de Dorinku van Oedipus denken. Lekker friszuur sapje.
