Heritage

The story of De Halve Maan

De Halve Maan is the last family brewery in the historic center of Bruges, brewing since 1856. Today it makes Brugse Zot and Straffe Hendrik.

❧

To keep tankers off the medieval streets, the brewery built a 3 kilometer underground beer pipeline beneath Bruges.
