Description
The Brewery was established by the De Coster-Depré family in 1897 and it was active till the eighties of the 20th century. Freddy Delvaux and the family gave a new lease of life to the old buildings of the Brewery in 2012. The new Brewery is the place where the Delvaux family can truly demonstrate their passion for special beers. Here, beers are cared for, invented, produced, consumed and promoted, and the Brewery is an unusual combination of science, the art of brewing, tourism and gastronomy.

Zythos 2018. Cloudy golden with a lasting white head. Fruity aroma with pineapple and peach, along with nice spicy notes. Sweetish malty and fruity flavour with spice and a touch of alcohol. Nice and clean, almost up there with the trappists.
