Brouwerij De Brabandere was founded in 1894 by beer enthusiast Adolphe De Brabandere and his son Jozef in the idyllic village of Bavikhove, in the West Flanders region of Belgium. What began as a modest brewing operation has grown over more than a century into one of Belgium's enduring family-owned breweries. Now in its sixth generation of family ownership, the brewery remains fully independent and firmly committed to quality and craftsmanship. Albert De Brabandere currently represents the latest chapter in this remarkable brewing dynasty. The brewery is perhaps best known for its Bavik Super Pils, widely regarded as one of Belgium's favourite pilsners. Beyond this flagship lager, Brouwerij De Brabandere maintains a rich and diverse portfolio of over 19 beers, ranging across traditional Belgian styles. The brewery also produces De Brabandere Kwaremont, a Belgian ale named after the famous cobbled climb in the Flemish Ardennes. Their range demonstrates a dedication to both accessible everyday beers and more characterful specialty brews, crafted using time-honoured techniques and the finest ingredients. With over 130 years of brewing history behind it, Brouwerij De Brabandere has built a reputation that extends well beyond Belgium's borders. Their beers are appreciated by connoisseurs across the globe, and the brewery continues to evolve while staying true to its roots in Bavikhove.
