About LA BRASSERIE DE WARSAGE
Brasserie de Warsage is a small artisanal brewery in the village of Warsage, in the heart of the Euregio. It produces Belgian-style high-fermentation beers using traditional methods, including brewing “the old-fashioned way” with a mash paddle over direct flame.
The brewery presents itself as a guardian of local brewing heritage, drawing inspiration from the long monastic and regional beer tradition around Warsage and the nearby Val-Dieu area. Its beers are natural, unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-refermented, and the company emphasizes craftsmanship, authenticity, and local production.
Brasserie de Warsage serves beer drinkers looking for characterful, traditional Belgian beers, and also offers tastings and direct sales from its brewery site.
Core Values
- Tradition: The brewery roots its identity in Belgian brewing heritage and monastic brewing history, and it explicitly aims to revive a long local tradition.
- Authenticity: Its beers are made with basic raw materials only—water, cereals, hops, and yeast—and are presented as natural, unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-refermented.
- Craftsmanship: The brewery stresses hands-on brewing, experience, and care throughout the process, from brewing to bottle conditioning and quality checks.
- Locality: Ingredients are sourced close to home where possible, and the beers are brewed locally in Warsage for regional consumption.
Unique Aspects
- Historic local inspiration: The brewery ties its story to the former Monnikenhof / La Moinerie site and to centuries of brewing activity in Warsage, using that heritage as part of its identity.
- Traditional brewing method: It highlights an old-fashioned approach, brewing with a mash paddle over direct flame rather than presenting itself as a fully industrial operation.
- Bottle conditioning in 75 cl bottles: The brewer emphasizes refermentation in bottle and uses 75 cl bottles sealed with a cork and metal cage, a presentation associated with premium Belgian beer traditions.
- Euregio location: Based in Warsage, the brewery positions itself at the crossroads of the Euregio, near Liège, Maastricht, Aachen, and Visé, which reinforces its regional character.
