Comment (by madage):

 I've let gpg run to see if it would eventualy fail and it did after ~20min
 and on dirmngr.log I've got the following messages:

 dirmngr[30493.6] resolving 'pgp.surfnet.nl' failed: Connection closed in
 DNS
 dirmngr[30493.6] can't connect to 'pgp.surfnet.nl': host not found
 dirmngr[30493.6] error connecting to 'http://pgp.surfnet.nl:11371':
 Connection closed in DNS
 dirmngr[30493.6] command 'KS_GET' failed: Connection closed in DNS
