Remarks: The name "Straffe Hendick" (meaning Strong Henry) was originally from the Halve Maan stable but the brand name was taken over by Brouwerij Riva. When Liefmans Breweries went bust in 2007 the name was temporarily used by Duvel Moortgat. In 2008 the Halve Maan was given permission to use the name again. |
