A professional brewing master will bring customers a different beer feast
The most famous beer in Belgium is Abbey beer. It can be said that through Abbey beer, one can understand the history of Belgium. Beginning in the 5th century, monasteries across Belgium began brewing beer. It is said that beer was originally brewed exclusively for monks. At that time, the monastery brewed and sold beer under the permission of the Catholic Church, allowing the monastery to bear its own profits and losses. By the beginning of the 20th century, Belgium had more than 3,000 breweries. So far, the monastery is still unable to make wine for commercial purposes. Apart from daily expenses, the remaining income will be used for charity. At present, there are only six abbey breweries in Belgium. Some breweries are open to the outside world, offering trial drinking and selling services, and sometimes selling other homemade products such as bread and cheese.
Whether you are traveling in Bruges, Leuven, Antwerp or Brussels, you can go to the local beer attractions to "punch in". Antwerp hosts the four-day "Bollekesfeest" beer festival in the city centre in August every year. The local Tekoning Brewery has a history of 187 years and can provide interesting tours of the brewery. In addition to experiencing the beer brewing process, you can also mix exclusive malt with light malt, rye malt, wheat germ, etc. In Bruges, the only family-owned brewery in existence, Half Moon Brewery, visitors can explore traditional brewing methods and taste the famous Brugse ZOT beer. In Brussels, Dillerham Cafe is a holy place for beer lovers, where more than 3,000 beers are served to customers.
Dry hops give the beer a bitter taste and aroma
In addition, there are two beers not to be missed in Belgium. One is the local white beer. In the era when hops were not yet popular in Europe, the beer's flavoring agent was a herbal mixture called gruit. To this day, most white beers in Belgium still use this mixture. Another specialty beer is Rubick. Unlike traditional beer that uses yeast fermented from cultivated strains, Rubick beer uses wild yeast and strains that are naturally fermented and produced in the Huna Valley of Brussels with sparkling wine. Fruity aroma and slightly sour back sweetness.
