Antwerp: City Brewery De Koninck Interactive Tour
Take an interactive, self-guided tour of Antwerp City Brewery, founded in 1833, and discover the story of the brewery while tasting delicious beers.
De Koninck Antwerp pale ale, poured in its short stem bolleke glass with a two-finger off-white head. The everyday beer of Antwerp since the brewery opened on Mechelsesteenweg in 1833, served in every brown cafe.
Brewery De Koninck opened on Mechelsesteenweg in 1833 and developed an Antwerp pale ale that became the Bolleke. The name refers to the short stemmed glass; ordering one is the city's everyday shorthand. The brewery still operates from the original building; tours end with a freshly poured glass. The annual Bollekesfeest in August pours Bolleke across Grote Markt for three days each year.
