A RANGE OF BEERS FOR EVERYONE TO ENJOY, FROMIDABLE FIERCE BEER
The Flemish Jesuit missionary Ferdinand Verbiest, born in Pittem, is one of many people who left their mark on China’s history. In the 17th century he was known worldwide as an accomplished astronomer.
As artisanal brewery in Pittem we honour Ferdinand Verbiest and we would like to point out via our FERRE beers how important he was for the history of science and the prominent role he played in China’s history. We hope that more people will become acquainted with the inspiring story of Ferdinand Verbiest through our range of FERRE beers. This story teaches us that knowledge, energy, creativity, openness and the willingness to work together can lead to some great results. And these are precisely the qualities we try to capture in our FERRE beers.
