Description
Mons, rijk aan traditie en uitstraling! Toch ontbrak er de afgelopen jaren nog één iets: een eigen stadsbier. Eigenlijk vreemd, en zelfs onbegrijpelijk, dat zo'n aangename en leuke stad als Mons nog geen eigen bier kende. Benoit Garnier, Massimo Falasca en Laurent Wuillot, de uitbaters van twee gekende Bergense brasserieën (Le Quartier Latin en de Taverne 44) waren dezelfde mening toegedaan. Daarom besloten de drie vrienden in 2012 om hier iets aan te doen. Ruim twee jaar lang namen ze de tijd om de Belgische brouwerswereld te leren kennen en om het hele land af te schuimen op zoek naar interessante plekken en personen. Uiteindelijk bleek hun ontmoeting met Bruno Deghorain, meesterbrouwer bij brouwerij La Binchoise, allesbepalend te zijn. Na de ontmoeting besloten ze een samenwerking op te starten.
