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.

Many thanks for this beer to JefVerstraete. Piwo o sporej i ladnej piance. Zlocistym kolorze, aromacie cytrusowym, troche przypominalo saison. Smak karmel, wytrawny chmiel oraz w smaku jakby sucharki namoczone w herbacie. Smaczne piwo
