[2] As early as 1597, records can be found in Steenhuffel's archives detailing a manor named Den Hoorn.

Arthur Van Roy oversaw the running of their pub and farm, and eventually became the driving force behind the construction of the brewery as we know it today.

The De Hoorn brewery was not spared the violence of World War I, and although it was completely destroyed in 1914, Van Roy decided to rebuild it.

In 1929, Van Roy decided to give his beer a proper name, calling it Speciale Palm.
