Description
Brouwerij Kwartje is een kleinschalige bierbrouwerij met een eigen brouwinstallatie gevestigd in het centrum van Den Haag. Alle bieren ontwikkelen en produceren wij zelf op ambachtelijke wijze.
Brouwerij Kwartje maakt moderne stijl bieren met uitgesproken smaken.

De brouwerij is in 2015 opgericht opgericht door Alexander en Rembrandt.
Na een korte periode als huurbrouwer is besloten om een eigen brouwerij te realiseren. Dit is in 2016 na een succesvolle crowdfunding campagne verwezenlijkt.

De brouwers zijn naast de brouwerij werkzaam in de IT. Dit is terug te zien in de naamgeving van de meeste bieren.
De naam Kwartje is afkomstig van de gelijknamige vriendengroep uit het verleden waar de brouwers elkaar hebben leren kennen. Jaren later bij het brouwen van bier is besloten deze naam nieuw leven in te blazen.

6.5/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6
Sampled @ Borefts Beer Festival 2017, day 1. Opaque black color, medium sized dense stable beige head. Aroma is hard to describe, nothing I can compare it with really. Flavor definitely has the rioja barrel in it pretty strongly, liquorice a little, tannin bitterness. Decent to medium body, decent carbonation. Ok beer.

Sampled @ Borefts Beer Festival 2017, day 1. Opaque pitch black color, medium sized brown head. Smell and taste malts, huge liquorice and huge anise. If you like anise and liquorice, you're golden with this. Otherwise, you'll struggle to finish it.
