Description
In 2017 we opened doors to our brewery and proeflokaal located in Amsterdam Oost. Our dream was to bring back and celebrating historic Dutch craft beers and the people who brewed them. Since then we've seen this dream come to a reality with the launch of our historic Van Vollenhoven series, reviving recipes made in the Netherlands at the Brewery De Gekroonde Valk from 1733 to 1945 and with our modern brews that draw inspiration from the old brewery employee's

In 2021 werd de brouwerij verplaatst naar een grotere locatie. Het proeflokaal blijft op dezelfde locatie.

In januari 2024 maakte Morebeer Brewing en Poesiat & Kater bekend te gaan fuseren. Morebeer Brewing hield met deze fusie op te bestaan.

Rerate: Tap @ Poesiat & Kater, 15 cl sample. Dark brown color, medium frothy head. Aroma of roasty malts, dark choc and bit licorice. Smooth roasty bitterness, bit creamy choc, slight mocha sweetness. All very nicely balanced and very flavorful. What a difference tap vs bottle can make here. Bottle @ Jopen Proeflokaal during Roels book presentation, 10 cl sample. Black label mentioning Poesiat & Kater. Dark brown color, short frothy head. Aroma of roast and dark bread, bit licorice and earthy bitterness. Bit light in flavor, some roast, earthy bitterness. Could use more body or creaminess. Decent beer though. 3.3
