A story anchored in monastic tradition
MAREDSOUS beer finds its origins in the heart of the Benedictine abbey of Maredsous, founded in 1872 in the province of Namur. The monks of this abbey, following the rule of Saint Benedict, have always made it a point of honor to combine prayer, work and hospitality. The abbey brewery, although modern, perpetuates an ancestral brewing tradition where each stage of production is carried out with meticulous care.
