The Brasserie des Fagnes as we see it today, with its imposing tavern and the curious roof flanked by a windmill, opened its doors in April 1998. After a series of péripéties, it succeeded a certain Brewery Lauvaux, installed in Couvin in 1903 by Constant Lauvaux, also… world champion champion in 1901 and 1902. The Super des Fagnes Blonde and Brown are the most famous beers of the house, with their version Super des Fagnes Cherries.
But, the limited capacity of the mariembourgeoise micro-brewery, they are prepared by the Brasserie brewery in Purnode. On the other hand, the fagnard brewer gives himself a joy to develop in His walls a rich range of brassins, often inspired by ancient recipes. This goes from wise season, White, four cereals or even Type Munich, to more astonishing Cuvée Vigneronne, Cuvée Junior, Cuvée Guillaume to apples or even Mint and Lemon beer, dirt, heather flower…
Three other vintages are constantly being developed: the Super des Fagnes Noël and Scotch, and La, born of a partnership with the provincial domain. All these beers can be tasted in the tavern, which also offers the free visit of a small beer museum. It brings together equipment of a century and a half, but well preserved, from the defunct brewery Degauquier, which had installed its vats in Chimay.
