We met in May 2002, at the time of the second edition of the Zinneke parade in Brussels, for which Bernard had created the now famous Zinnebir. We started our professional brewing career towards the end of 2003, building a microbrewery in Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, in the former warehouse of the Moriau brewery. We decided to call it the “Sint-Pieter Brouwerij.” After producing for two years, the premises had become too small due to the success. We then decided to move and make our dream of establishing the brewery in our city, Brussels, a reality. To mark the occasion, we named our brewery after the river from which our city was born more than a thousand years ago: Brasserie de la Senne. It took us five years before we could properly settle in the city. Meanwhile, in order to continue production, we rented different breweries, owned by friends, where we could brew our beers ourselves. These migratory years came to a conclusion on December 22, 2010, the date of our first brew 100% made in Brussels!

The brewery would not exist without the team that makes it what it is. We are lucky and honoured to work with great people who share our values: Rosanna, Breza, Martin, Francis, Olivier, Max, Jimmy and Jean. Many thanks are extended to them. We have also been, and still are, surrounded by people with skills that we ourselves do not have and who show unwavering support for our project. They know who they are and they have our eternal gratitude!
