Carlsberg Resumes Brewing In Belgium’s Grimbergen Abbey

For the first time in 200 years, Grimbergen Abbey will resume the production of various Belgian-style beers.

Carlsberg has built an innovative new brewery inside the famous Grimbergen Abbey, near Brussels, to continue the legacy of the abbey, which began brewing 900 years ago.

Carlsberg teamed up with the Grimbergen Abbey to design the new production facility, which will see beer being brewed inside the walls of the abbey.

Beer-making had ceased at the location when the building was destroyed during the French Revolution.
