The founder of the brewery, Luc Vermeersch, started experimenting in 1997 in his holiday home with a small 30-liter mini-brewery that he had purchased in Finland. Through intensive self-training and making numerous small test batches, his knowledge and interest in brewing grew. In April 2008 in Ruddervoorde, between the cities of Bruges and Roeselare, the De Leite brewery became a fact. The first brewery was installed even before the amateur brewer had finished his course. As the demand for beer continued to grow, the brewery was expanded in December 2011 and grew steadily over the following years. In 2011, Luke had another dream come true.

He brought back 14 220-liter wooden wine barrels from winemaker friends in the Médoc area of France. His love of sour beers was finally able to translate into a "Cuvee" series at his own brewery. The brewery now already has 105 of these barrels installed, as well as eight wooden barrels with capacities ranging from 4,000 to 5,000 liters.
