Giants of brewing history: Rosa Merckx

The Grande Dame of Belgian Beer | For this installment of our article series, we travel to Belgium, a country with a passion for beer and where a number of distinctive styles have originated. Over several centuries, an extraordinary beer culture has developed in this small northwestern European country – both in its legendary monasteries and in the wealthy trading municipalities of its two main regions: Flanders and Wallonia. In this milieu, a figure arose whose influence on modern Belgian brewing history was substantial and who sadly passed away not long ago: the inimitable Rosa Merckx.
