About

Lekker Stout from Stadsbrouwerij Helderse Jongens in Den Helder is a dark, roasted stout with character. At 6.5% ABV, this brew delivers a full flavour profile centred on coffee and chocolate, complemented by subtle caramel notes. The brewery, founded in 2013 by Dave Kleine, Tim Ouwens and Mitchell Gerrits, is housed in the historic Fort Westoever, built in 1825. The name Helderse Jongens nods to the city's rich history and the brewers' pride in Den Helder. This stout avoids excessive heaviness despite its roasted character. A fresh tartness and hop bitterness add tension and balance, making it a natural pairing with rich fish and spiced dishes.
