And yes, this is an excuse to post this lovely photo with just a few of the possible beers one can enjoy in Belgium.
There is a real culture of beer drinking: large glasses (you can find them in Bucharest where they serve Leffe), countless pubs and beer gardens and supermarkets with more beer types than chocolate ones. And Belgium is a good place for chocolate lovers also, but that pales in comparison.
The thing that really surprised me is that most beers are pretty strong. It doesn’t matter if we are talking about bottled, ‘export’ ones, or ‘monastery’ beers, or even small pub offerings (like Delirium Tremens – white bottle with a pink elephant…). Most are over 8 alcohol or even 9. And this means that after 3 or 4 I got pretty tipsy. 2 more and I became very tipsy.
Some of the beers can be found also here in Romania – classic Leffe, Hoegarden, some Duvel – but for the real variety a visit to Belgium is mandatory.
