The beer is the result of the skill and attention of the Master Brewer.

Pierre Delcoigne gained his diploma in chemical & biochemical engineering at l'Université Catholique de Louvain (U.C.L.). He then did 2 years of specialisation in "Brewing Malting and Fermentation” at the Louvain School of Brewing and obtained his Brewing Engineering diploma.

In November 1997, Pierre Delcoigne and Vinciane Wergifosse acquired the Castel d'Irchonwelz (dating from the XII Century) in order to develop their project of a craft brewery. It took two years for construction works and setting up the brew plant. The first brew of Gouyasse went on sale in August 2000.

Pierre Delcoigne is responsible for managing the brewery company. He is not only involved in all parts of the production process but also what comes after.

Vinciane Wergifosse is responsible for HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point – i.e. Food Safety), Export and Customer Relations.
