Brouwerij Vissenaken

Description

Brouwerij Vissenaken has set itself a powerful task: Brouwerij Vissenaken actively seeks to help preserve and spread the Belgian beer culture in the broadest sense of the word. This includes: brewing beer, involving and initiating as many people as possible in the brewing process, getting to know and learning to appreciate the thousands of Belgian beers, visiting small breweries and exchanging information and knowledge, etc... and, last but not least, putting Vissenaken on the world map through its own brewery. Because what is worse than a pub without beer? Exactly… a village without a brewery!

Additional information

A special brew is created each year for the local drama group from Vissenaken “Welle(n) de Slumme(n) van Vessenake” on the occasion of their annual play. The brewery refers to this beer as its "theatre beer" (or "toneelbier" in Flemish). In 2009 it will be called “Paradijsvogel” (a "bird of paradise").
A few years ago a beer club was set up around brewery Vissenaken under the name "SNAKEN VAN FASSO".
