Klere Boght is brewing small batches of craft beer with flavors the brewers themselves love the most, most of them stouts at the moment. After starting with commercial brewing in 2020, the brewery will continu exploring the paths to whatever may come!

Berkel-Enschot, Noord-Brabant, Netherlands
La Trappe Trappist is genuinely brewed ale from Berkel-Enschot, The Netherlands. It has been brewed within the walls of the Abbey of Our Lady of Koningshoeven since 1884, where the Trappist monks live a life of prayer and work, in peace and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. La Trappe Trappist was awarded the exclusive ‘Authentic Trappist Product’ (ATP) label by the International Trappist Association. This label guarantees that the Trappist ale is brewed under the supervision and responsibility of the monks, within the abbey walls, and that part of the profits are donated to charity. These age-old principles are still respected to this day. The result is an ale brewed in blissful silence with a taste like no other..
Middelburg, Zeeland, Netherlands
Life’s too short for boring, middle of the road beers. Craft Brewery Kees! stands for tasty, fruity, hoppy flavours and strong dark ales, but there’ll always be that ‘twist’ . That special ‘something’ that make his beers stand out. Owner and brewer Kees Bubberman started his brewing career in 2007 at Emelisse, a small regional brewery in Kamperland, Zeeland. Within a couple of years Emelisse became a household name among craft breweries worldwide, thanks to the by British and American beer styles inspired ales, IPA’s, strong porters, stouts that Kees Bubberman brewed. Never afraid of trying something new and relying on his experience as a restaurant chef he created more than 30 new beers, including an IPA with Earl Grey tea, barrel aged porters en stouts and strong porters and stouts with coffee. Kees was ahead of his time with experimental flavours like these. In 2014 Kees Bubberman decided to start his own brewery in his hometown Middelburg. Thankful for the opportunities Emelisse gave him, he felt that it was time to go his own way. Brewery Kees! started in January 2015 and within a year his delicious IPA’s, strong porters, Russian Imperial stouts and barrel aged barley wines, porters en stouts found their way in the (beer-)world. Kees keeps on creating new beers and searching for new tastes, sometimes following and sometimes setting trends.

Uitgeest, Noord-Holland, Netherlands
The Gulden Triomfator started off in 2014 with five enthusiastic home brewers buying their first beer kit, a Belgian tripel. After the first year four remained and continued to brew beers they liked themselves at home in the kitchen, garage or garden. Gradually their recipes matured after many trial-and-error and tasting rounds with friends. Having backgrounds in chemistry, construction, distribution and finance it seemed perfect to start a brewery of their own. In 2019 we decided to take the jump and start the Gulden Triomfator Brewing Company, to explore how far the taste of beer can go.

West-Terschelling, Friesland, Netherlands
King Cask is not a brewery We are three friends with a passion for quality spirits, beers and the sea. A shared hobby that spun out of control. We grew up at sea, we work at sea, live surrounded by the sea or spend our time off in the sea. A bit of salt water must be flowing through our arteries. Their always has been an indefinite connection between sailors, the sea and spirits. For our first bottling it inspired us to revive the old habit of “Dynamic Aging” on board an ocean-going ship, A unique process which might bring the smell and taste of the sea a bit closer to your home. When bottles are filled with spirits, casks will be emptied. We give these casks a new life in collaboration with our local breweries. At KingCask we strive for a raw and honest product with a transparent origin. No chill filtration and no additional colouring.
