The Schaerbeek Beer Museum (French: Musée schaerbeekois de la bière; Dutch: Schaarbeeks Biermuseum) is a museum dedicated to Belgian beers in Schaerbeek, a municipality of Brussels, Belgium. The museum, which is a not-for-profit association (in Belgium, an asbl), was founded in 1993 and officially opened in March 1994.

The museum houses a collection of more than 1000 bottles of Belgian beer and their respective beer glasses. Also exhibited are beer making machines, tools, advertisements and the archives of breweries past and present.[1] The museum also features a reconstructed tavern from the early 1900s.

A beer named the Schaerbeekoise is produced for the museum by the Brasserie des Rocs. This beer, as well as many other varieties of Belgian beer, is served in the museum's own tavern, which is in the former workshops of a nearby school.
