Because whisky is essentially a distillate of beer. So why not bring a beer to market too? It wasn’t until 2021 that we started brewing our own beer. Not just any beer, but exclusively lambic. The beer of our region, a beer we can be truly proud of to our core.[\/vc_column_text][split_line_heading animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” font_style=”h6″ text_color=”#000000″ line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”default” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” link_target=”_self” text_content=”This is how we make… the difference” text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][split_line_heading animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” font_style=”h2″ text_color=”#000000″ line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”default” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” link_target=”_self” text_content=”Our own lambic brewed on our… alambic” text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

According to historians, the name lambic comes from alambic, the original Arabic word for a still. And that\u2019s exactly what we have here as a distillery. After some brainstorming, adjustments, and plenty of testing, 2022 was the year: we could brew on our still, our alambic. We had already built a coolship and had barrels ready for fermentation. The step from distillery to brewery is actually a very small one. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]At our core, we are a distillery and always will be. So why the leap into lambic? Well, we\u2019ve been brewing for years and have the equipment to do it. And with Anthony, our son-in-law (who only became so after meeting our daughter here at the distillery), we found a passionate, young, and enthusiastic brewer. When we say ‘family’, we really mean it.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”3920″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”3\/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_single_testimonial testimonial_style=”small_modern” color=”Default” quote=”I named this blend after my eldest daughter, Juliette… a sparkling and spontaneous girl.

Why wouldn’t we use local grain for our lambic? Truly short-chain. As a ‘Court of Brussels’, we\u2019ve been growing grains in the Pajottenland for centuries\u2014for bread, beer, animal feed… and that self-sufficiency is exactly what fascinates us as a distillery and brewery. Can we grow wheat and barley ourselves or with local farmers for brewing and distilling? Yes, of course! And with the construction of the malt house, we can strengthen this local story even further. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]And we can brew with full respect for nature. Not just through that short chain, but also through our energy efficiency. Here\u2019s how it works: at the distillery, we use more than 2,000 liters of cooling water per hour. Water we need for the condenser. We don’t just reuse that water for brewing, but more importantly, we reuse the heat it carries. This allows us to brew almost energy-neutrally, from mashing for whisky to even kilning the barley in the malt house. Sustainability isn’t just good for the environment, it’s good for the wallet too.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”8%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”8%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][split_line_heading animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” font_style=”h2″ text_color=”#000000″ line_reveal_by_space_text_effect=”default” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” link_target=”_self” text_content=”Discover our other beers too” text_direction=”default”][\/split_line_heading][nectar_woo_products product_type=”all” category=”beers” columns=”4″ flickity_mobile_column_width=”100%” orderby=”date” order=”DESC” carousel=”1″ script=”flickity” flickity_wrap=”no-wrap” flickity_overflow=”visible” flickity_controls=”touch_indicator” flickity_group_cells=”default” flickity_image_scale_on_drag=”true” flickity_item_animation=”fade-in-side” per_page=”4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
