Brussels Beer Project launches advent calendar for hop lovers

For the fifth year in a row, Brussels Beer Project (BBP) has launched its much anticipated hoppy Advent Calendar – a real collector’s item packed with surprises.

Behind every window is a different BBP beer; 24 tipples that are a mix of BBP’s famous flagship brews and limited editions, from familiar classics to fresh exclusives just canned.

Among the highlights are icons like Delta IPA – the first IPA to win over Brussels – and its alcohol-free sibling Delta Zero.

The selection also features brand-new releases straight from the beer tanks, such as Stranger Days, a double mirabelle gose brewed in collaboration with Estonian brewery Põhjala, and Pmpkin Latte, a spiced, indulgent autumn treat. BBP’s ultimate winter warmer Yeti Bang also makes its long-awaited return.

The 2025 edition sports a brand-new look by illustrator Aysha, whose bright, colourful style is described as “an invitation to escape” and “the perfect cure for winter blues.”

The sometimes maligned Belgian capital is itself hidden throughout the artwork with nods to BBP’s Dansaert and Bailli taprooms, the company’s Port Sud brewery, and the neighbourhoods that surround them.

This eye-catching design highlights how Brussels Beer Project is deeply rooted in its home city – “open to its people and to the world,” says a BBP spokesman.

As an added playful touch, the back of the box features a reinvented game of Goose, designed to be enjoyed without moderation this time.

The advent calendar is priced at €79 and is available at the BBP store at 182 Rue Antoine Dansaert  and can also be ordered online.
