4 Simple Ingredients

Our History
100 Years of Creativity and Innovation
Our brewery was founded in Douai in 1919 from the merger of several small local breweries. Initially, our beers were only sold within a 2-kilometer radius. A century later, our brewery has grown significantly, and our beers are now enjoyed across France and around the world. André Pecqueur took over the brewery in 2010, remaining true to its brewing tradition and family values.
