Pictures of the beerhappening I was lucky to be invited by my friend Marleen who knows the organisator very well (the one in the yellow T-shirt). We had a lovely Sunday afternoon! I hope you will not be too disapointed not finding so many beers on this travelogue. The reason is that first of all the beers are all served in a for this occasion developed glass, second that they all look the same in this glass (but don't taste the same!), 3rd... the location is just so breath taking (I really love this old building!) that I have been seduced of taking rather pictures painting the athmosphere then just pictures of beers and stands. Hope you enjoy! |
the building (an old stochexchange market place) built on a crossroad. |
We were first let into a door next to the entrance and had to climb a couple of stairs. I haven't been in this part of the building before so I really was excited! |

At the balcony, overlooking the hall (what a view!), a couple of tables looked so inviting so we sat down and got spoiled with a special kriekbeer that was brewed for this occasion. |
There was this Dixie band to add to the ambiance |
There was a restaurant where you chould chose out of different menus, made with beer. We got a special one so we checked all of them in one '-) |
