History

Founded by J. De Vleminck & Fils. in Strombeek-Bever, Belgium in 1892. Active under the name "Brouwerij du Drij Pikkel S.A." from 1904 until 1955. Produced Faro, Gueuze, Gueuze Lambic, Kriek, and Krieken Lambic. ^[1] Located at Boechoutlaan 245. In 1957 part of the brewery is converted into a tavern, which operated until the early 1970's. A time later the entire brewery complex was bought by wine wholesaler H. Roscam, who performed a full restoration of the buildings, which are still in use today.^{[2] [3]}
