I am sorry, please no overpriced Belgium beer. Kriek, Oval,... sorry, no. Nothing for a beer gourmet. Leuven - Louvaine, the problem is that there are actually two universities or cities... Don't forget to make an appointment with your MEPs for next year Akademy, Brussels is close.

Avoid Kriek but sample Westmalle, Duval, Chimay, Grisette, St Feuillen, Karmelite... the list goes on.

Just remember Belgian beers are strong 5% - 12% (e.g. 1 beer ~ 1/2 bottle of wine) Try not to pay more than 3 euros!

But you must sample some!

A "kriek"/"oude kriek" from e.g. Boon, Hanssen, Cantillon or Drie Fonteinen is actually quite good.

And Belgian beers aren't necessarily strong, e.g. Leroy's "Prima" & "Ridder" are only 2.x% or 3.x%, but taste _a lot_ better than most well-known Belgian (& foreign) pilsner beers (Jupiler, Stella, Maes, Heineken & other crap).

if you look around , you'll find REAL "kriek" , and not the
commercial stuff (BV). At least, we have a choice
choosing our beer's and software (love kde & geuze),
you just need to look a little bit further.

We just have the best beer ;-)

"I am sorry, please no overpriced Belgium beer."

It's much cheaper if you buy it in Belgium than outside Belgium...

*confused*

They make loads of great beers in Belgium, how can you say no to them?! Here in Denmark they don't cost more than other imported or special beers.

Westvleteren 12...yum!
