Brouwerij Hommeles in Houten crafts Bokkepruik as a distinctive Dubbelbock brewed with smoked malt and honey from the local Houtense Imkerij Two Bee. This is beer rooted in regional storytelling: the brewery sources exclusively from locally grown ingredients including Utrecht gagel, apples and pears from neighbourhood farmers.

Bokkepruik arrives full and rounded with the characteristic licorice and herbal notes expected of a bock. The nose reveals roasted malts and subtle smoke, layered with caramel malt. On the palate, dark malts emerge alongside hints of roasted character and a touch of liquorice, anchored by the smoked grain. Medium-bodied with a dry, satisfying finish.
