Founded in 1886 on Kruisstraat in Overmere by Polidor Baeten, and the widow of J.E. Baeten-Van Heymbeeck. Located on Kruisstraat [https://goo.gl/maps/KjxTAmyXK8zHzskk8 (Fortstraat 22 today)]. The family also owned an adjacent oil millrefinery (still in operation today), in which a steam installation was added in 1850, that provided electricity to the village center. Leopold Frans Baeten (b.1865, Dworp) and Robert Baeten later owned the brewery, and it became known as “Brasserie Sept Etoiles" or "De Zevenster". It closed in 1944 during WWII, but the building was spared. It remained in use for some time after, bottling beer for the Excelsior Brewery.
