Brewery Omer Vander Ghinste is the brewery of fine beers like OMER. Traditional Blond, LeFort, Tripel LeFort, Bockor , BLAUW export beer, Kriek Max, Cuvée des Jacobins, VanderGhinste RoodBruin, ... When Omer Vander Ghinste started the brewery in 1892, he gave his beers his own name, as this was common in those days. He promoted his beers by placing stained glass windows with the words “Bieren Omer Vander Ghinste” in the front windows of the pubs. As these windows were very expensive, it was no option to replace them at every change of generation. Therefore every firstborn son was baptised ‘Omer’. The brewery was successively managed by Omer (1892-1929), Omer Remi (1929-1961) and Omer (1961-2007). Today the management and the well preserved secrets are in hands of Omer Jean Vander Ghinste. Nowadays, these handmade windows are still present in the street scene and have been the inspiration for ‘the look and feel’ of OMER. Traditional Blond.

We are not going to claim that working for an independent, family brewer like Duvel Moortgat is as spectacular as landing on the moon, but it is nevertheless very special. We have been brewing for four generations now, since 1871. Since the very beginning our family is devilishly possessed by the quality of every drop, every barrel and every bottle of the 1.4 million hectoliters of specialty beer that we produce annually. We use the best, natural ingredients, with a great deal of patience and respect for the planet. Almost 1,400 colleagues (soon 1,401?), from Puurs to Shanghai and from Lyon to Cooperstown, Kansas City and Paso Robles (USA), apply themselves enthusiastically to their task every day. We even achieved a top-ten place in the list of Belgian companies with the best reputation. #Proud. Maybe it’s the scent of Duvel in the air, maybe it isn’t half bad to work here. Just come and check it out. With gems like Duvel, La Chouffe, Liefmans, Maredsous, De Koninck and Vedett, we can captivate fans of specialty beers both in and beyond Belgium.
