Café Brouwerij Nieuwhuys is a small brewery and café located in Hoegaarden, in the Flemish Brabant region of Belgium. Situated in the oldest house of Hoegaarden, the brewery carries on the rich beer tradition of a village that has been synonymous with Belgian wheat beer for centuries. The project was born from the passion of beer enthusiast Rudy Scheys, whose goal was never to turn a profit, but simply to share his love of beer with visitors and locals alike. The brewery is known for producing characterful Belgian beers that honour the heritage of Hoegaarden as a historic beer village. One notable beer brewed at Nieuwhuys is named after Countess Alpaïdis, the legendary founder of Hoegaarden as a beer village. The brewery combines a working brewhouse with a welcoming café atmosphere, offering guests the chance to enjoy freshly brewed beers alongside light snacks. Opening hours suggest a leisure-focused, community-oriented taproom experience. Brouwerij Nieuwhuys is featured in tourism guides for Flanders as a genuine Belgian beer experience, and appears in publications covering Belgian beer culture. It is listed among the notable breweries of the Flemish Brabant region and has attracted visits from international beer enthusiasts and organisations. The combination of historical setting, authentic brewing and a relaxed café makes it a unique destination in the Belgian beer landscape.
