We recently visited the home of the remarkable St Feuillien beers, and used the opportunity to take some pictures for a short virtual tour of this Belgian Brewery.

It is a fine red brick building still with some of the old equipment in situ and indeed in use.

The ingenious mechanism in the old brew house, where the whole process is driven from one shaft from the hopper feed into the tun to the paddles stirring the liquid within it.

Stage 1

The arrival and selection of the malt and hops.

Stage 2

Production of the mash.

Stage 3

Bottling into those wonderful oversize bottles.

Stage 4
