Meet Flanders’ Brewers: Rosa Merckx (teaser)

Flanders is home of exceptional beers thanks to the passion and craftsmanship of Belgian beer brewers. 93-year-old Rosa Merckx is a true brewing legend. She was Belgium’s first female head brewer. She started 46 years ago working at the Liefmans Brewery in Oudenaarde as a secretary. She fell in love with Belgian beer and soon picked up the brewing skills.

━━ About VISITFLANDERS ━━━━━━━━



As a Flemish government agency that is strategy and knowledge-driven, VISITFLANDERS is committed to the sustainable development and promotion of Flanders as a top tourist destination. We don’t do this by ourselves. Together with our tourism partners, we work to allow Flanders to flourish as an innovative, high-quality travel destination and to inspire potential visitors to put the region at the top of their bucket lists. Our ultimate goal? Using tourism to help Flanders flourish as a destination! We do so both for our residents and entrepreneurs and for you, our visitors. We pay special attention to sustainability, accessibility and family-friendliness.



We focus on the intense experience of a place, a destination. This can involve meaningful encounters, specific activities or a sustainable travel formula. Instead of concentrating on a specific city or region, we develop broader Flemish narratives based on interdependent themes. Wherever possible, we combine these themes to further strengthen people’s experience. Welcome to Flanders!
