About this experience

This isn’t your average beer tasting—it’s a flavorful, no-fuss dive into the world of Belgium’s best brews, guided by a passionate local (that’s me!). You’ll get to taste six strong Belgian beers, each poured in a proper tasting glass (11 cl), carefully selected to highlight the incredible range of styles Belgium is known for.

From complex Trappist ales to bold tripels and lesser-known local gems, every beer has a story and I’ll share the fun facts, quirky history, and brewing secrets behind them.

And because good beer deserves good company and even better snacks, the tasting now includes a curated cheese and salami board to pair with your pours. The flavors come alive in new ways, and the experience becomes a whole lot more satisfying.

Set inside a vibrant local bar, this tasting is informal, interactive, and full of laughs; come as you are, leave a little beer wiser.

Perfect for groups of friends or colleagues; fun, interactive and full of Belgian flavor
