Brouwerij van Hoegaarden
Hoegaarden Brewery is a historic Belgian brewery famous for reviving the traditional witbier (wheat beer) style using water, yeast, wheat, hops, coriander, and dried Curaçao orange peel. The brewery traces its origins to 1445 when monks first developed the wheat beer recipe, and was revived in 1966 by milkman Pierre Celis after the last local brewery closed in 1957. Now owned by Anheuser-Busch InBev, it remains one of the most recognized wheat beer brands globally.
