In 2009, "Brouwerij De Molen" (Brewery The Mill) organized its first beer festival. In and around the old mill with the help of some great brewers and a group of novice volunteers. Many of them are still part of the volunteer army. Over 400 beerlovers found their way to the festival. In 2015 the festival reached about 6700 of those from 40 countries. They enjoyed the beers flowing from the taps served by 18 breweries.
Borefts Beer Festival normally takes place at the end of September. Both days from noon to 10pm. Starting 2016, the festival is pre-sale only! Access only with a ticket. Per day 3500 tickets are available.
