Description
Our mission is pretty much monomaniacal: to brew f*cking good beer. We call it craft-y beer because the owl's got a sharp, uncompromised tongue and a penchant for mischief.
On a typical day we toy with the familiar – unfiltered lager, silky hefeweizen and puckery American IPA, anyone? – but at night we explore the crafty beer extremes from our medieval watering hole Haarlem (That's Haarlem with two 'a's, the Dutch one, and the namesake of New York's single-'a'ed Harlem).
Really truly, our idea of fun is abusing the rauchbeer-Scotch ale-sour beer-oak-aged Imperial Stout-Barley wine clichés. The first rule of owl school: when using hops think in wheelbarrows and not buckets.
So enjoy us, drink us and by all means hop fans abuse us right back – ideally via our social media channels where we announce our very active new creations.

Il gusto al naso rimanda al luppolo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata e il modo in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido offre una visione offuscata. Il colore è giallo dorato torbido. Il corpo è strutturato. Il dolce è medio. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas, mango, frutto della passione e frutta tropicale.

Opaque colour, mid-sized brownish head. Cocoa, chocolate aroma. Medium-bodied. Chocolaty, coffeish stout. Nice roastyness in the aftertaste backed with hops. Although they mention "Sachetorte" this is more towards classic imperial stout than any kind of pastry. Solid.

Shared with Laura at Rabauw brewpub, Eindhoven. Clear golden color, medium sized white head. Aroma is very very very peachy, a bit artificial though. Flavor is lightly malts, firmly bitter, peach notes but also not very natural. Nonetheless, quite nice.
