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.

Black. Slight woody, vinous aroma. Quite a spicy one but lacking in depth of flavour.

Hazy brown, no head. Aroma is fruity, hoppy with light smoke. Very smooth and creamy. Nice caramelly malts and plenty of fruity, hoppy bitterness.

Draught @ Nederlands Speciaalbier Festival Den Bosch 2014. Unclear red-brown color, very small off-white head. Aroma is malts, nicely hoppy and nicely fruity. Taste is also malts, nicely hoppy, nicely bitter. Plain and simple maybe but quite nice. Like it.

Draught @ Nederlands Speciaalbier Festival Den Bosch 2014. Opaque black color, small a bit soapy light brown head. Aroma and taste are malts, roasted malts, a bit alcoholic, some bourbon but also a touch of vegetables. Hmm something is weird about it.

Draught @ Nederlands Speciaalbier Festival Den Bosch 2014. Opaque black color, small brown head. Smell malts, roasted malts. Taste malts, roasted malts, a lot of hot peppers. Way too much, burning spicy peppers in your throat. Not my thing at all.
