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.

33 cl bottle @ home, gift from the brewers, thanks! Pitch black color, pours like motor oil. Huge brown head with long retention, even when poured cold. Aroma’s of sweet red fruit, raspberries, marzipan. Retronasal it’s red fruit, roasty, and the heat of the peppers is already kicking in. Flavor is moderate sweet, chocolatey, coffee-ish, accompanied by peppery heat. Medium bodied. Finishes with roast and light bitterness. Peppery heat continues. It’s manageable, but as usual, it distracts from the flavor and aroma. Not yet convincing.

330 ml Bottle. Thanks to Maakun for the bottle. Pours with a hazy orange color and a nice large white head. Nice and intresting nose: smoke from a cold bonfire mixed with slightly tropical fruit. Some spruce and piny fragrance hops, some malts. First impression is a little artificial, but it isnt. Taste like Islay Whisky, the rye is more intense, fruity, cold ash, nice hoppy bitterness, very nice smoke and fruity finish. I love this combination of smoke and IPA. Thanks to Maakun for this very intresting beer.

Fles met dank aan #Sjogro! De aanduiding peated porter snap ik, de omschrijving rookporter wat minder. Schenkt zwart met koolzuurprobleem en daardoor mega bruine kraag. Aroma van turf, cacao, chocolade, geroosterde en wat gebrande mout. Rookmout... nee. Smaken van turf (matig &zacht ), gebrande en geroosterde mout, cacao, droog, zeer lichte rookmout, vingerverf, lichte koffie, laurier, matige body, en idd meer een peated dan een smoked porter, lijkt mij obv eerdere ratings inmiddels ook een ander bier geworden.

Bottle at Murphy’s Law. Pitch black pour with a thin espresso head. Notes of cinnamon, chocolate, roasted malts, peppers and chili. Medium to full body with an intense, but not overpowering, chili burn. Really nice.
