Picobrouwerij Alvinne

Picobrouwerij Alvinne is a tiny craft brewery located in the small hamlet of Heule near the Belgian city of Kortrijk. The name of the brewery derives from a female spirit of local folk tales, who can be seen depicted on the brewery's logo and labels.

The brewery creates a wide range of beers, including versions of 'traditional' Belgian styles such as Strong Golden Ales, Abbey-style beers and Saison, as well as original creations that cross stylistic boundaries and beers inspired by styles from outside their home country like Imperial Stout. Although quite small and a newcomer to the Belgian brewing world, being founded in 2002, Alvinne has gained international attention, no small feat in this brewery-intensive nation.
