At one time, Het Anker Brewery had a full range of beers, from simple table beers to lagers and special top fermentation beers. The changing beer market and the rise of special beers obliged Het Anker to concentrate its efforts during the sixties in brewing so called special beers in order to survive the big brewing boom.
After 20 years the brewery felt that their offering a full range of beers was still important. Het Anker Brewery decided to launch locally lager called Blusser following the old traditions.
Blusser means fireman. The nickname for people living in Mechelen is "de Maneblussers" or "moon firemen". When you drink this beer in his original glass and look deep into the glass, you will possibly understand why.
