COME TRY IT!
From grain to character, from kettle to crown: at Haacht Brewery, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at how beer is truly made. Walk past historic copper brewing kettles and state-of-the-art bottling lines, smell the hops and barley, and finally taste the results of all those steps. A visit to our brewery isn’t a museum tour, but a behind-the-scenes look at a brewery in full swing.
ABOUT THE TOUR
During your visit, you’ll walk through the entire brewery, from the historic brewhouse to the state-of-the-art bottling lines. You’ll see firsthand how raw materials, technology, and craftsmanship come together to create the beer you know and love. Along the way, you’ll pass by our laboratory, where every batch is inspected before it leaves the facility. The tour combines the history of Haacht Brewery with a look at how we work today and where we’re headed. At the end, a guided tasting of our selection awaits you—the well-deserved finale to your visit. Is your mouth watering yet? Great—that’s the idea.
IMMERSE YOURSELF IN THE BREWING PROCESS
The brewhouse is the heart of the brewery. This is where water, barley, hops, and spices come together, and our brewers oversee every step using the latest technologies, from receiving the raw materials to the brewing process itself. This precision work takes place on a large scale: we brew about 4,000 to 5,000 hectoliters here every day. After brewing comes filtration, during which the solids are separated from the liquid that will eventually become beer. The copper exteriors of our brewing kettles may look old-fashioned, but on the inside they’re made of stainless steel and completely state-of-the-art. Here, you can smell, hear, and see how tradition and technology are intertwined.
