Den Herberg, Buizingen

In 2000, Bart Devillé and Ann Heremans bought a large pub that had been empty for years. The initial plan was to use the building as a warehouse for the couple's construction company. Slowly, however, the idea of accommodating a brewery in the building evolved. The works started in 2006. In December 2007, the brewery was operational.

Initially, the brewery only produced top-fermented beers. In January 2017, Den Herberg brewed our first lambic. The first Oude Geuze was sold in August 2020. 

The brewing kettle has a capacity of 1800 litres. After boiling, the wort is exposed to the open air in our coolship.

Den Herberg is a real family business. Bart and Ann's sons Akke and Kloris also have stepped into the business.
