The cross-border Ardennes have reason to be proud of their rich brewing heritage.
Just like oenology does for wine, biérologie puts beer and Ardennes culture in the spotlight!
With L'Échappée Bière, our beer tourism agency, we offer a wide range of unusual and unique activities throughout the Ardennes. Our goal: to share our love of beer and this region that straddles three countries, while having fun.
The Ardennes boasts more than 80 breweries and a rich brewing history, from the beer drunk by the Celts to the Grande Brasserie Ardennaise, including numerous Trappist (and non-Trappist) abbeys. We invite you to combine local brewing expertise with our event and tourism activities.
