How to get to the abbey?
First and most convenient, go with your car so you can load 5 crates.
Second option is by belbus. This is public transport, but you have to call at least 2 hours before you want to travel. More about this bus on the website of de Lijn, the public bus.

The downside of the bus is ofcourse the space, how to take your beer with you?
There are also organised tours, when we were there we saw three different busses.
