Brasserie de la Senne
The beers of Brasserie de la Senne are produced by two passionate brewers from Brussels: Yvan De Baets and Bernard Leboucq.
They work in a small brewery honouring the traditional ways of brewing beer: unfiltered, unpasteurized, free of any additives and using only the finest raw materials of the highest quality. Their dedication to uncompromised quality is definitely one of the outstanding characteristics of the brewery.
The beers, with their complex flavour and well-distinguished personalities, are true beers of character, made in Brussels.
History
The brewery is the initiative of Bernard Leboucq and Yvan De Baets. Leboucq set up the St. Peter’s Brewery in the former lambic brewery Moriau in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw in 2003. He moved on to create Zinnebir, named after the Zinneke Parade. De Baets worked at Brouwerij De Ranke in Dottignies/Dottenijs. The two decided to start a brewery together in 2006. As the building in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw was no longer available, they brewed provisionally at the De Ranke and Proef breweries. Meanwhile the brewers searched for and found a suitable location in Brussels, a former industrial bakery in Molenbeek. A first test batch was brewed in the new premises at the end of 2010. The brewery has a reputation for brewing fine ales and “frustratingly rare blends” that often include lambic from the nearby Cantillon Brewery.
In 2013 they collaborated with Pennsylvania’s Weyerbacher Brewing Company to produce a beer called Manneken-Penn and with Washington, DC’s Bluejacket brewery on a beer called Gray Jacket, in the style of the beer formerly made for miners in the Hainaut region of Belgium.
