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.

Sample @ Zythos’16, courtesy of and shared with the RB Belgian crew. Ambrée, col beige vire blanc-cassé. Arôme au nez modéré de malt pâle et pils, cara ambre, houblonné noble restant assez faiblard. Profil moyenne en effervescence, malté pils et pâle avec un malt semblant plus foncé que pour la version Bovengronds. Le houblon reste, malgré ses 4 variétés - nobles je suppose - trop discret pour apporter un profil relevé.

Sample @ Zythos’16, courtesy of and shared with the RB Belgian crew. Dorée, col blanc. Arôme fruité, fleuri noble très belge dans le rétro de levure et de grains - style pils cara pâle. Palais est malté, fruité et fleuri rappelant un peu la lavande, fin citronné encore une fois dans une lignée bien belge.

Amber-brown color with tan head. Aroma is sweet malts, some apples. Taste is not very refined, just a bit of Belgian yeasts and not much maltiness. Lacking character.

Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is spicy yeasts. Taste is flowery, dough, Belgian yeasts. No real flaws here, but needs more character.
