Brewery De Vlier | Holsbeek
Brewer Marc Andries loves a good experiment. ‘Because there’s more to beer than a pilsner or a classic tripel', he says. How about a X-Mas Spicy, with a hint of Biscoff spices? Or a smoky Smokin’ Elder? Or his range of deliciously light aperitif beers?
Brewery Hof ten Dormaal | Tildonk
André Janssens and his sons brew beer using hops and barley that they grow themselves, making them the first circular brewery in Belgium. They are more than happy to share the story behind their beer, from the field to your glass, in their wonderful tasting room. Expect ground-breaking innovations in an informal setting.
Brewery de Coureur | Kessel-Lo
Brewers Bart and Ine brew beers that are energetic, courageous and powerful, just like the cyclists leading a race. In addition to a number of beers available year-round, there is a different beer on tap every month. The only way to enjoy a tasty glass of beer from De Coureur is to get it from the tap at the bar at the back of the brewery. The brewery also serves a delicious home-made soft drink. You are more than welcome to eat your own sandwiches or have something tasty delivered as you enjoy one of the brewery’s thirst-quenching beers.
Brewery Adept | Herent
Brewer Dimitri Staelens learned the craft from professor Delvaux (Brouwerij De Kroon) and at Inbev and Duvel-Moortgat. Since 2015, he has been brewing Adept beers in the building of De Smederij, in Winksele. At De Smederij's bar you can have brunch, lunch, dinner, and of course the Adept beers (WinXel, WinXXel, WinXXXel and WinXXXXel - each with its own character). Once a month there's an English brewery tour at De Smederij (Dutch tours are weekly). Dimitri and his guides will be happy to assist you!
