Blanche de Bruxelles is a renowned Belgian white beer, originally created by the Lefèbvre brewery. Known for its Cloudy appearance and citrusy notes, it is a quintessential example of the traditional 'Witbier' style, characterized by the use of coriander and bitter orange peel in the brewing process. The label prominently features the Manneken Pis, a famous symbol of Brussels, emphasizing the brand's deep-rooted connection to Belgian culture and heritage.

Historically, the brand was founded by the Lefèbvre family in Quenast, Belgium. Over 140 years later, the brewery remains an independent family-owned operation. It continues to brew its selection of specialty ales at the original site, maintaining artisanal techniques while exporting its products globally. Unlike many craft brands that have been acquired by transnational conglomerates, Blanche de Bruxelles remains under the stewardship of the Lefèbvre family, ensuring its status as a traditional, family-managed Belgian brewery.
