The C1 is one of the main northern cycle highways towards Brussels. It provides a fast, largely flat, and safe connection from Antwerp to Brussels via Mechelen and Vilvoorde. In and around Brussels, the route primarily follows railway lines and the Zenne Valley, creating a remarkably car-free and linear corridor. Here, the C1 follows the canal.

In order to optimize our brewing process, major renovation works will start in January 2024. Since these are structural works, regular brewery visits cannot take place in optimal conditions and will be put 'on hold' for an indefinite period. But good news: our visitor center D' Oude Bottelarij remains available for tastings, seminars, presentations, meetings, receptions, walking dinners and tailor-made events. Palm Breweries in a nutshell: The history of Palm Breweries goes back to 1747, when Anne Cornet built a small village brewery opposite the church. At the 1958 World Expo in Brussels, Palm gained national fame thanks to its central location on the market square. It is the only brewery in the world that brews according to the 4 traditional fermentation methods and this at 3 historic brewing sites. Palm is a spicy, slightly bitter, amber-colored high-fermentation beer made from barley malt, fresh hops, a secret mixture of herbs and very pure artesian water. The Palm logo is the Brabant draft horse, a brown body with white manes, which alludes to the typical colour of the beer with a sturdy white collar. Draft horses are bred on the Diepensteyn castle estate behind the brewery. The S-HOP (brewery shop) seems to be a good destination for beer lovers or people looking for a gift. In addition to gift packages, special packaging and beer reading material, the shop also offers gadgets and glasses for sale.
