Description: The Brasserie des Géants was started up in 1997 by two engineers, Pierre and Vinciane Delcoigne, at the Castel d’Irchonwelz, which dates from the twelfth century. The first brew was put on sale in 2000. The Brasserie Ellezelloise was founded by Philippe Gérard in 1993 and produces the Quintine and Hercule product range. The brewhouse here is capable of producing two to three brews of 1,500 litres per day. Created in 2006 from the merger between the Brasserie des Géants and the Brasserie Ellezelloise, the Brasserie des Légendes was inspired by the rich folklore of our region: the Ducasse d’Ath parade with its procession of giant puppets and the Witches’ Sabbath festival in Ellezelles.
