Our beers are brewed with great care, using principles
created 208 years ago.

They’ve been brewed in the same location for 160 years.

The Cornelissen Brewery is a small, state-of-the-art brewery where some of the world’s most skilled brew masters craft traditional recipes while creating new ones.

That’s how we stay true to our craft brewery beginnings…with a genuine commitment to fresh brewed beer. No one other than our family makes our beers, and we do not make beers for others. All of our beers are original, real, and family-made.

Ever since 1811 when we brewed our very first batch, our mission has been simple:
Create beers that live up to the Belgian traditions of brewing perfection.

COPPER

All Cornelissen beers are brewed in our family’s original copper kettles using water from our own well, 200 meters below the surface of the brewhall.

HOME

160 Years in one place: Since 1859 our brewery has been in the city of Opitter. Our home.

HANDCRAFTED

<100

Our brewery is operated by less than 100 people, all of whom live locally.

Many of us have had forebears be a part of this brewery, some going back generations. Each and every drop of our beer is produced by dedicated people who have made our brands among the best in the world.

This is True Craft. This is Our Craft.
