In Belgium we know many breweries, small and large. But there are not many breweries that have grown as enormously as Brouwerij Het Nest from Turnhout.
What started in 2000 as a closed beer club, where mostly beers were tasted while they talked about beer and their women, led in 2005 to following a brewing course.
Shortly afterwards, a small brewing installation was purchased. And their beers were appreciated! In order to sell these beers on the market, they initially had their beers brewed at existing breweries.
But due to the high demand for their beer, and also the many countries to which it is exported, the idea was started to build their own ultra-modern brewery.
And their dream came true in 2015!
You can read the full story and all their beers on their website. https://www.brouwerijhetnest.be/en/
Together with 40 other beer lovers I visited the new brewery once. I would like to present you the pics I took.
After our visit, of course, all their beers were tasted. Luckily we were with a bus and had a driver!
When you pass in Belgium, and you are interested in visiting a brewery... Well worth it!
