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.

A few years ago, the "Vaudrée" concept from Liège was exported to the university town. This adventure now has a name: the BeerLovers' Shop, while the BeerLovers' Café remains in the Principality. The BeerLovers' hops are also available on the Net, enabling them to reach new heights. Available in this store, virtual or otherwise, are more than 750 beers (not all Belgian), as well as a wide range of pékets, liqueurs, absinthes, rums and other beverages in the same vein... And even beers on tap.

This is a real reference in the whole of Brabant-Wallon! This vast space of 150^m2 includes a large counter with 12 beers available on tap (10 of which are fixed) and a long list of 200 Belgian beers (and seasonal beers, ephemeral by essence). The team, very professional, gives advice to the undecided. The place regularly hosts small spontaneous concerts: everything is good for the pop-rock atmosphere of this bistro which attracts both passing beer lovers and local students.
