Description
Two locals, whose grandparents were still working in the mine, developed the beers. The plan to brew on a large scale soon followed. The first liters of Kompel beer poured out of the tanks at Brouwerij Anders! Kompel Bovengronds was quickly successful and six months later Kompel Ondergronds came onto the market. Between the summer of 2015 and 2018, the beers were brewed at Kasteelbrouwerij Ter Dolen in Houthalen-Helchteren. Since 2019, the beers have been brewed on a larger scale at the Pilot Brewery in Lochristi.

0.33 l bottle from 'Hello Bier', best before March 2024. A bit hazy, golden with a medium large, fluffy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, slightly floral aroma of corn flakes, honey and pear. Quite sweet, slightly malty, hardly bitter and a little floral taste of grains, corn flakes, some honey and hints of pear, followed by a short, slightly bitter, a little dry finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay.
