Founded 1886 in Overmere by Polidor Baeten and the widow of J.E. Baeten-Van Heymbeeck, the widow of Joannes Franciscus Baeten. Located on Kruisstraat [https://goo.gl/maps/KjxTAmyXK8zHzskk8 (Fortstraat 22 today)]. The family also owned an adjacent oil refinery (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.
