>>22184158Do Americans really?

>>22184277It's a stupid marketing event. We can just go to actual breweries and take pictures with brewers If we ask them proper questions they'll likely answer them. What do you want to know? Who do you want to visit? I can go, but I can't go empty-handed.
>>22184158Isn't there a monastery in Brussels where monks brew dark beer? I heard from one of my brother's coworker that it's definitely something, like a taste you can't get anywhere else.
>>22186612The trappists? They've got a tent here, but they also send bottled beer all around the world.
>>22186104Chouffe brewery is my fav. What else is there..Hoegaarden's breweryI think that's all, just take pics of amusing things around. Ask them how involved were chrisitan monks in the beer brewing, what else, a brief history of the origin of belgian beer and its links and differences to German beer
>>22184158I went to belgium 2 years ago for a beer trip. Out of the breweries that are on the list for the festival, this is what I would hit up immediately>De Halve Maan>Duvel Moortgat>Het Anker>Lindemans>Van Sternberge>VanhonsebrouckI have to admit I haven't tried half of the list, and the other half I would actively avoid because there is simply better beer there.With a special mention to go to Brasserie Cantillion which is around a 25 minute walk south of South Place. Cantillion goes for crazy premium in the US because you can't get the bottles here.
