JANINE

Bakery
5/5
1 review

It used to be said that "where the brewer goes, the baker does not". But here, these two trades are reinforced because we brew and knead. The bread is made with natural leaven and organic flours low in gluten. There are several kinds, they are all superb! As for the Funky beer, it is brewed partly with unsold bread. As for the dregs, the residues of the brewing, they go to the kneading trough. The loop is closed, nothing is wasted and the quality of the products is great! The brewing place is the Brussels Cooperative Brewpub (CoHop).

D'Ici forges links between small-scale producers and their customers. The aim is to promote short circuits. This well-intentioned concept covers 360 m². It offers a wide range of fresh, packaged and prepared foods, not forgetting Belgian wine and beer. Of course, we won't find any big names here, but rather the best in local food and drink. For each product, the number of kilometers separating the place of production from the point of sale is indicated.

LIEFMANS

Large brewery
5/5
2 reviews

Present in the Oudenaarde region since 1679, the Liefmans brewery produces typical dark beers such as Liefmans Oud Bruin. Alongside these classics, there's also a "kriek", the cuvée brut, which differs from lambic krieks. Here, fresh cherries are macerated in Oud Bruin. After a year's maturation, the resulting beer is blended with others of different ages. In recent summers, a light, refreshing Liefmans Fruitesse has been joined by its alcohol-free version and glükriek, a spiced version of kriek brut.

Renowned breweries can themselves open brewpubs. In Wallonia, this is the case for Dubuisson, who inaugurated the first establishment of this type, Brasse-Temps, in the university town of Louvain-la-Neuve as long ago as 2000! A specific range of four beers was created, to be tasted only on the premises. In the space of twenty years, Brasse-Temps has become a household name, with several outlets opening in the Hainaut region, including Mons and the latest in Charleroi's Ville 2 shopping center, which opened in 2022.

JANDRAIN-JANDRENOUILLE

IV Saison, V Cense, VI Wheat This new brewery opened in the summer of 2007, taking the name of its home village of Jandrain-Jandrenouille in Walloon Brabant. It is the brainchild of two young engineers, Alexandre Dumont de Chassart and Stéphane Meulemans, who developed the brewery in old farm buildings with equipment from the old Brasserie du Berry at Bourges in France.Launched in September 2007, the first beer was IV Saison, an unfiltered, unpasteurised and bottle-conditioned beer (6.5% abv) with a pleasant hoppy aroma. It's a genuine saison beer and the IV in its name refers to the number of ingredients needed to make it: water, malt, yeast and hops.IV Saison has now been joined by two other new beers: the amber V Cense, a subtle blend of hops and three different malts (7.5%), and VI Wheat, a mild wheat beer (6%) with fruity aromas produced by the different hop varieties it contains. All beers are sold in 75cl bottles and 20 litre kegs. The brewery hopes very soon to be producing 300,000 bottles per year.

In this shop, located in the historical centre of the city, you will find several hundred references of artisanal beers only, but not necessarily Belgian beers. The national references are the most numerous with a particular affection for small structures. It is also the only real beer shop in the centre of the Walloon capital. Ideal for shopping for gourmet gifts. Organisation of tastings, gift baskets and gift packages such as the amusing Crafty XMas Box, the brewery version of the Advent calendar.

Inaugurated in 2017, Manufacture Urbaine is a project that aims to be sustainable, ethical and locavore around bread, beer and coffee. Because at the MU, we're brewers, bakers (sourdough and long-fermented breads) and roasters. The workshop space is vast and airy, all concrete, glass and steel, very pleasant. The brewery's four product ranges are highly varied: lager, white, black, table beer, IPA, amber and, last but not least, a triple. On the restaurant side, the menu features brasserie dishes using local, seasonal produce.

BRASSERIE CANTILLON

Craft brewery and microbrewery

The dashing hundred-year-old brewery has never changed hands, the current "boss" being the great-grandson of Paul Cantillon. The beer production does not use any kind of additives, uses the famous spontaneous fermentation and is certified organic. We are talking about a mythical brewery, celebrated as far as the USA. The Cantillon brewery is considered in more than twenty countries as a reference for spontaneous fermentation and therefore for traditional lambic and gueuze. Jean-Pierre Van Roy, retired, assists his son Jean who has taken over the running of the brewery.

HUENS

Cave à bières

This venerable institution has been around for over a century! Originally, it was more of a grocery store. Its proximity to the university enabled it to become a pioneer in the speciality beer trade, now open as a "night-shop". There are around four hundred different beers on offer, many in 75 cl format. Prices are attractive, even if the owner, Pierre, no longer claims to be the cheapest in Brussels. Except for foreign beers, which remain below the prices charged elsewhere...

ROCHEFORT (ABBAYE NOTRE-DAME DE SAINT-REMY DE)

Craft brewery and microbrewery
4/5
1 review

Rochefort 6, Rochefort 8, Rochefort 10 There are three versions of this admirable Trappist beer: the 6, the 8 and the 10. Rochefort 10 is the most celebrated; Rochefort 6 is the rarest, sold mainly in shops near the abbey; Rochefort 8 is the most widely available.Production has doubled in recent years to meet the strong growth in demand, both in Belgium and overseas. 26,000 hl were produced in 2010. The whole brewing process, including the bottling, takes place inside the abbey walls.The brewery is the abbey's main economic activity, but for all its success, its role remains one of supporting the monks' main devotional activities. The abbot himself has said that the abbey is first and foremost an abbey, one of whose activities is brewing beer.The abbey, or l'Abbaye Notre-Dame de Saint-Remy (to give its full name), is about a mile (2 km) from the Ardennes town of Rochefort, halfway between Brussels and Luxembourg. It has been on the site for centuries and there is evidence to show that monks started brewing Rochefort beers as long ago as the 16th century.The brewery is not open to visitors, but the services at the abbey church are open to all.

Roger Caulier and his three sons are the heirs to a family business, founded in 1933 and since 1980 housed in the former Tensier tannery in Peruwelz. They immediately made a name for themselves by selling their production in retro bottles with mechanical corks. Classics include Bon Secours and Paix-Dieu, billed as the first abbey beer brewed every full moon. It's served in a rather original glass, featuring the roundness of the moon but cut at an angle, "to highlight its aromas", explains the brewer.

This craft beer cellar opened in spring 2022. After an internship at the Brewery du Clocher in Malonne, Diego decided to open a specialized store. He offers Belgian beers and a small selection of foreign beverages. In any case, he has banished the beers available in supermarkets from his shelves, in favor of craft beers. Small tables are set up inside for tasting one or other of the beverages. And tasting workshops are provided by a guest zythologist.
