In 1997, Luc Vermeersch, founder of De Leite brewery already experienced with a small brewing installation in a garden house. The installation has a capacity of 30 litres and was purchased in Finland.

Together with his friend Etienne Van poucke he attended a brewing course for one year. While taking that course, he met his other brewing partner, Paul Vanneste.
