The story of Bompa the smooth one

Meet Bompa, the living king of tall tales. One time, while sitting on the pub terrace, he shared a story about meeting a Canadian buddy during the war—a big guy with a small taste who couldn’t handle our strong beers. But Bompa knew just what to do: this Canadian always carried a bit of maple syrup with him, and Bompa—in his own unique way—decided to toss in some blackberries from the bushes next to the pub. Together, they brewed something one-of-a-kind, and now Bompa insists on having it served his way at the local pub.

Did Bompa ever actually fight in a war? No, but the way he tells these stories, you’d think it all happened just yesterday.

Now, after a day spent wandering around the local pub terraces, Bompa’s sitting back with a glass of his favorite dubbel in hand. This dubbel is exactly how Bompa likes it: full and smooth, thanks to oats and wheat, with a hint of blackberries and a generous dash of Canadian maple syrup—a nod to that legendary friendship. No cheap grenadine for Bompa—only the best will do.
