Brewmaster Hedwig Neven

One of the most reproduced beer photographs in the world is an exterior shot of the Duvel brewery, on which is written (in Dutch), “Shh, here ripens the Duvel.” The man who oversees that ripening is Hedwig Neven. He has been with the company since 1997 and has been the master brewer for the past decade and a half. He started out studying chemistry but then finished his PhD with the sponsorship of Duvel Moortgat.

Most of the acquisitions have happened since Neven has helmed Duvel. From his laboratory in Puurs, he checks the technical quality of the beer and coordinates activities of all Moortgat’s breweries. Whenever Duvel Moortgat acquires another brewery, Neven sets about improving the technical aspects of the process — though he leaves local brewmasters to keep making the beer according to the original recipes. He has also been entrusted with the Duvel brand and has been slowly releasing extensions such as Duvel Single Fermented and Tripel Hop.
