Fermenthings doesn’t want to be a simple shop of fermented products. It wants to teach people how to ferment and create a community around that beautiful form of production. Like scoby swapping, and kefir seed giving, fermentation in general is a community driven activity with core values.

So we decided to start organizing meet ups between all these driven people so you can exchange recepies, good practices and create new and aweosme ideas. We will gather once every monthon a friday, and everybody can bring own little pots of fermented goodness to share with each other. You will be invited also to taste our experimentation. Every time we will have a list of things that will be there to taste.

Doors are open starting at 17h and if it’s sunny we can all sit outside at the newly made terras.

Keep fermenting!

With Brussels Beer City! Brussels is experiencing a renaissance in brewing, an activity that has helped to shape the city and its history. But, to know where we are and why, you need to know where it’s coming from. Over the course of an evening, we will dive onto the history of brewing in Brussels, exploring the “3 Ages of Beer” in Brussels – from the 19th century estaminets where straight lambic and faro were the drinks of the common man, through to the booming industrial breweries of the mid-20th century pumping out lager and pils, and on to the revival in traditional spontaneous fermentation and the rise of the New Moderns of Brussels brewing that are redefining what Brussels beer means. Along the way, we will taste some of the landmark beers that defined these eras, together with some classic Brussels snacks.
