Microbrouwerij Urthel and De Hoppeschuur


I'm happy to say that I have a nearly 1,000 word article on
the new project of Hildegard and Bas van Ostaden in the
February/March issue of Celebrator Beer News.


I wrote about Microbrouweij Urthel on these pages in
January 2012. You can read that post here

De Hoppeschuur ("The Hop Barn") restaurant


My first visit was in September 2011, and I returned for
a second visit-and a meal-at the new De Hoppeschuur
restaurant in December 2012. De Hoppeschuur means
"The Hop Barn," and the excellent new restaurant is
adjacent to the brewery.

I urge anyone that can to visit this fine brewery and
restaurant located in the countryside of West Flanders,
Belgium!
