Drinking alcohol is an early daytime activity for most folks, isn't it? I got there at 4:12 P.M., when they wouldn't pour me a beer but were more than willing to sell me merchandise for another hour: CANTILLON GUY: "What do you want to buy?" ME: "The bar's closed? CANTILLON GUY: "We can't keep serving all day." ME: "So there's no way to get a beer?" CANTILLON GUY: "Get here earlier." ME: " ... " CANTILLON GUY: "So, what do you want?" ME: "I don't want anything." (Exit ME.) I get it -- there are lots of tourists, and there are times to close. Did I expect him to open the bar for just super-special me? No. Did I expect him to be maybe just a little bit less of a jerk, especially when he was simultaneously trying to pry my wallet open? It sure would've been nice.

Stumbled upon this place randomly and stopped on by…read more Ended up reading a lot about it, and the more I read, the more I liked what I saw. It's kind of a workshare space for breweries. It was originally a Kickstarter type project, hence the name. And most, if not all, if their beers are collabs with other brewers. The space is cool. Tons of seating in the back, and some in the front. The beers I had were good, but not amazing. I had the Eternity (cucumber and juniper sour), the Dark Sister (black IPA), and the #EXP 0027 (tropical session). They also do growlers, beers to go, and sell a ton of merch. Stop on by if you're in the neighborhood!

A lot of other great stuff followed). The beers were great, in particular the Gueuze which was refreshingly sour and smooth. The people were friendly and it's a fun place to kick back and check out the local beer scene. Highly recommended! TIP: Be sure to check their hours, as we were told they're not open all the time. We came on a Saturday night and I believe they were to close at 22:00.

We got a beer that we have also seen for a very long time too. It was the Delirium Tremmens which is a Belgian Strong Golden Ale which was pretty good. It didn't quite have the micro brew feel going on and had the feel of a larger mass produced brewery but it wasn't bad. Flavor characteristics with this beer are strong, sweet and some fruitiness going on. It's also strong tasting and light bodied. I am glad to have tried one of the beers from this brewery at long last!

Outstanding beers!…read more Ole lady and I came here, was one of our first stops in Antwerp, recommended by the conceirge at our hotel and also discovered via yelp... We sat at the bar and all of the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The beers were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the "Boot Je Bier". Liked them so much I lugged a couple all the way back to the U.S. I would say this is the best brewery in Antwerp.

The reason for the three stars, is the lack of any type of customer service. We arrived during business hours and the tap room was open. We passed three employees walking in and we said hello. We were the only two people in the tasting room except for an employee eating a salad at a table. One by one the outside employees walked in and went onto the production side, not saying a word. I'm thinking, "okay, it's probably not their job. Maybe this young lady eating the salad runs the tap room, and we happened to catch her at lunch." She finished her lunch and walked out without a word. Then as we sat there (and got up and walked around the tap room) for almost 25 minutes. Multiple people walked through the tap room ignoring us completely. After asking my wife if I should just pour us some beers and leave money on the counter she convinced me to stop a guy passing through and in broken French asked him if we could buy a few beers and a T-shirt. Once I asked, he was pleasant and helped us and we tried a few beers and took 6 home with us. Again the beer was great, but we both just had the feeling we weren't welcome, or perhaps being a bother. This was about, 4 months ago btw (October 25th, 2018)

They have 6 beers on draft and all of the tasters we tried were very good. Wit, Blond, Amber were very well balanced and each had a nice aftertaste which should be experienced. I believe they use no hops in their beers (per the tour guide explaining to the group next to us on the patio) resulting in great flavorful beer w no bitterness. A few tips - - GPS to the location and be prepared for a quick turn into a courtyard type parking lot. Pay for parking at blue box on side walk. - outside cafe seating - doggy friendly in-out side. - the tour sounded very educational and worth the $ - their dried sausage was a nice side to the beer. The friendly English speaking staff add to the easy 5 star rating of this in town brewery. Nice job Gruut!!
