Crow Mountain Brewing Company

About Crow Mountain

Crow Mountain is a Belgian craft brewery from Essen (Province of Antwerp) that has been brewing its own beers in the Belgian brewing tradition since 2013. The focus is on pale ales, IPAs and stouts. All beers are made exclusively from natural ingredients without artificial colours or flavourings; the beer names consistently follow a musical theme. The brewery was founded by Filip Van Loon (†) and Bart Brits, who experimented as early as 2010 with a single-kettle brewing system converted from an antique washing machine – the first pale ale recipe later became the Harvest Moon Pale Ale. Since September 2021, all beers have been brewed and bottled at a new site in Essen on a new brewing and bottling system.
