Today Liedekerke is an urbanized town, but the surrounding area once spoke to people’s imagination. Early medieval charters (900-1100) that speak about our local history already mention ‘De Heeren van Liedekercke’ (The Lords of Liedekercke). For more than 500 years this castle and its ‘heeren’ (lords) have played a role in the history of Flanders that should not be underestimated. Unfortunately, it was often besieged, and its complete demise started with the French Revolution. At the gate of this once renowned castle now lays ‘De Heeren van Liedekercke’! The festive opening of a beer bar by Joost and his parents Erik and Agnes in 1991 was a new milestone in its history and this in a time where beer wasn’t hyped yet. A beer menu with 30 kinds of beer was already extraordinary,… at ‘De Heeren van Liedekercke’ you could taste more than 200! Thanks to brother Tom – who passionately integrates the beer in different courses – the kitchen soon evolved into a beer kitchen. He achieved honorary positions in several competitions and has won gastronomic awards. On September 1st 2011, ‘De Heeren’ had existed for 20 years… but the lords are only strong because of their ‘dames’.
