Notes:-
The brewery was founded in 1791. Kwak has a branded glass with its own distinctive shape that is held upright in a wooden stand, the brewery claims the glass was designed by the innkeeper Pauwel Kwak in the early 19th century for coachmen who would stop at his coaching tavern and brewery named "De Hoorn", though the beer and the glass were not launched until the 1980s. This Kwak glass (222 years) was specifically made to commemorate the 222 year anniversary of the brewery
