Vliegende Paard Brouwers (Flying Horse Brewers) is a small Belgian craft brewery based in Oedelem, a village near Beernem in West Flanders. The brewery grew out of a homebrewing background: founder Andy Prearis began as an award-winning hobby brewer before establishing Vliegende Paard Brouwers as a professional operation. A defining early milestone came in 2011, when his Préaris Quadrupel won the Brouwland beer competition for hobby brewers, a victory that laid the foundation for the brewery's identity and helped launch it into the wider Belgian craft beer scene. Vliegende Paard Brouwers focuses on Belgian specialty beers, with the Préaris Quadrupel serving as the brewery's flagship and signature beer. The quadrupel style — rich, strong, and complex — reflects the deep Belgian brewing tradition that inspires the brewer's work. With at least seven to eight different beers in its portfolio, the brewery covers a range of speciality styles that appeal to fans of authentic Belgian craft brewing. Their beers are distributed through specialist beer retailers in the Netherlands and Belgium, and the brewery is represented in international markets through importers such as Artisanal Imports. The Préaris Quadrupel has helped establish Vliegende Paard Brouwers as a respected name in Belgian artisanal brewing. The brewery's roots as a prize-winning homebrewing operation give it an authentic, passion-driven character that resonates with beer enthusiasts seeking quality small-batch Belgian ales.
