Client brewer Brouwerij Bello is an initiative of hobby brewer Kelvin Hoogeboom. The name Bello refers to the local Bellopad, a well-known walking path over a former railway line. The steam locomotive 'Bello' raced through Vinkeveen, the brewer's place of residence, via this railway line until the 1850s and still proves its service on the current steam train line Hoorn-Medemblik. In addition, Bello is a corruption of the Italian word 'Bellissimo', which means beautiful or wonderful and that is exactly what Bello wants to serve: beautiful beer from Vinkeveen.
