Founded in 1873 by the Maeck brothers in Brussels, and later taken over by Charles Crétens-Maeck in 1887 until 1902. Originally located at rue Haute 161-163, the brewery moved to rue Sterckx 9-11 in 1899. This was the former site of Vander Elst Bruyn, which itself had moved to the former site of Merlo in Uccle. [1][2]

The brewery produced Faro, "Lambic Gueuse Extra", and Lambic, and also advertised Vieux Lambic for blending. It presented lambic at the World's Fair 1894, in Antwerp and won a gold medal at the Brussels International Exhibition, 1897. [3]

Prior to this, from 1833-1873 the brewery was named "La Ville De Namur" and was founded by the brothers Henri and Josse Grimberghs. In addition to the brewery, this site was also an oak and chicory factory. After the brewery closed in 1902, the Victoria brewery was located here until 1907, when the inventory of lambic was sold in a public liquidation sale. 1 [4]
