Established in 2008
In 2012, he opened a new chapter in the long history of exceptional craft beers by vowing to deliver locally brewed craft beers, to sell them within 28 weeks of bottling through 28 gastro pubs and to deliver them within a 28 minute radius. This way our consumers and customers would receive the beer at peak flavour.
In 2013 the name was changed into Caulier Sugar Free. In 2020 - after a hefty capital investment - the name of the company was changed into Brasserie 28, which is more in line with the ambitious plans of Coppieters (like establishing of a new brewery in Brussels).
For the time being the beers are brewed at the Proefbrouwerij.

Secca asciutta nel finale. No! cos’è questa roba? Sembra una di quelle birre da quattro soldi per stonarsi. c. Cantina della birra 28.05.21
