Why a guided beer tasting in Brussels?

Belgium's beer culture is recognised by UNESCO, and Brussels is closely tied to lambic, a traditional style that tastes very different from the beer most visitors know. A menu full of unfamiliar names is hard to navigate alone. With a guide you taste a range of styles, learn what to look for and leave knowing which ones you like.

The Beer Museum adds the story behind the glass, and the old taverns show you where Brussels actually drinks.
