    The brewing tradition in the municipality of Hoegaarden dates back to the Middle Ages. Hoegaarden brewery has only existed under this name since 1985: De Kluis brewery, founded in 1966 by Pierre Celis, a local milkman, was destroyed by fire and rebuilt under a new name.

    Since then you can enjoy famous beer specialties and delicious food here. An ideal stop on every bike tour!

    The Hoegaarden monks were the first to discover the unique wheat beer recipe in 1445. Historical sources tell us that the first wheat beer was incredibly sour—until the monks of Hoegaarden began experimenting with orange peel and coriander. This divine discovery makes today's beer one of the world's most famous Hoegaarden recipes.
