"A characterful winter beer. Overwhelming taste: coffee, roasted flavors, warming alcohol and an intense caramel flavor.
There are plenty of average, 'boring' or moderately brewed beers. The true beer lover needs surprising IPAs, stouts and porters with bold flavors, or separate seasonal beers, but of the best possible and most consistent quality. Here is a brief overview of the philosophy of Kees Bubberman, owner of Brouwerij Kees! in Middelburg.
Accessible tasting beers, but with a twist, something special, that's his idea. Kees Bubberman started his professional brewing career at Brouwerij Emelisse in Kamperland in Zeeland. He had been a more than creditable hobby beer brewer for years. Trained and working as a catering chef at that time, he saw a unique opportunity. Within a few years, Emelisse has grown from a brewery aimed primarily at tourists and beer brewers in the region into a craft beer brewery of international fame. Dozens of mainly British and American style and daring IPAs, heavy porters, coffee stouts, winter beers and saisons left the brewery.
Nevertheless, Kees Bubberman decided after a number of years that it was time to stand on his own two feet. A number of large and small investors from home and abroad were happy to help him realize his dream and at the beginning of 2015 he opened Brouwerij Kees in his hometown Middelburg! Less than a year later, he was voted the fourth best new brewer worldwide by the leading craft beer aficionado site Ratebeer.com. What you call a flying start! In 2017, the Kees brewery was again high in the worldwide top 100 of Ratebeer.com. Now, three years after its founding, the beers from Middelburg are finding their way into the world, as far as the United States, China, Russia and Australia.
Spring 2018, Brouwerij Kees switches over to a so-called canning line. Craft beers retain their refined aromas and (hop) flavors better in tins. Light, air, heat and time are the biggest enemies of beer, according to research. Especially with IPAs, light is out of the question, says Kees Bubberman. The flavors must be optimally preserved. The beers from Kees! are slightly different from those of other brewers and that is why they ask for the best possible packaging. In real craft beer countries such as Great Britain and the US, tinplate is already on the rise as packaging and the rest of the world is following."
