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.

Bottle @ tasting shared with TomHendriksen and Inoven. Hazy dark red-purple color, virtually no head. Aroma is heavily artificial cherry, chewing gum / bubble gum. Flavor is slightly less bad: sweetish, cherry, lightly oak, less artificial. Ok body and carbonation. Decent.

Flesje gedeeld door Benzai. Goudgeel, beetje troebel bier met matig schuim. Weinig aroma, beetje een bloemen geur. De smaak is fruitig en een beetje zoet. Weinig nasmaak.

Donkerrood bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is fris fruitig, licht zuur en niet echt chemisch. Ondanks ik niet echt een liefhebber van fruitbieren ben kan ik deze best waarderen.
