| shrubber85 (59), Wallhalben, Germany | | July 11, 2008 Found the selection here to be slightly better than 2be and Bier Tempel - spent considerably more cash here. Staff is knowledgeable and beyond friendly. Hell, all three are within 5 minutes of each other so why wouldn’t you go to all three. | | beastiefan2k (108), Lawrence (formely NYC), Kansas | | June 4, 2008 Did not feel as warm and welcoming as other shops. Also got too much of a tourist feel from it. But its large and open with lots of sour stuff, 1 of only 2 places where I saw De Cam Oude Lambik. Lots of stuff here but by this point I found almost everything I needed elsewhere. Closed on Tuesdays. | | ¾ (599), Colorado | | June 4, 2008 Fantastic beer shop in the heart of Brugge. Wide open, deep beer selection, a number of fantastic lambic and gueuze bottles, nearly the full trappist line, and some more local bottles from some Flanders brewers. A lot of glassware, a ton of gueuze glasses especially... and nice enough woman staffing the desk. Classy store, should be on your itinerary along with Bier Tempel and Bacchus Cornelius. | | bhensonb (287), Woodland, California | | May 28, 2008 Works for me. Agree 2be and Bier Temple might have more selections, but you can’t afford to not step in here. We are all looking for something. I was not disappointed. | | JoeinUccle (138), Brussels, Belgium | | January 8, 2008 It’s a nice shop to look around, very near Erasmus and the newer, larger 2be. If you’re going from shop to shop and picking up one or two bottles here and there, this one won’t disappoint. There’s also a selection of chocolates, genever, and other souvenir goodies. The selection doesn’t appear as wide as 2be or Bier Tempel, but they did have Pannepot on my last couple of visits. Also some good lambics (but nothing really rare). But if you’ve only got time for one bottle shop, I’d go for one of the others. | | Jerre (50), Waregem, Belgium | | January 5, 2008 High prices, but also a rare choice
some beers difficult to find.
Good.
| | JoeMcPhee (262), Jackson Heights, New York | | November 4, 2007 Walked by this place without even knowing it was there. Good selection of glassware and a reasonably nice selection of beer. Large space, well laid out. I didn’t buy too much stuff in here, but if I’d had a car, I probably would have picked up more. | | JK (118), Richfield, Minnesota | | May 15, 2007 [ Updated July 1, 2007 ] It is centrally located and you are very likely to find this shop without even looking for it. After being in Brussels and Ghent, there was nothing new in this store and I purchased nothing. There was lots of glassware, and prices were fair. Service was indifferent to my presence. | | Glouglouburp (214), Montreal, Quebec | | November 16, 2006 Cute gift/beer shop selling cute packages in the cute Brugge tourist area. It is very good at theme packages (i.e.: pre-packaged gift box with all beers from a brewery + official glass). It’s probably the best store I’ve seen in Belgium as far as these cute gift-boxes are concerned. However this is not a place for the beer geek. No obscure/rare beers and very few micros. Mainly mainstream beers (trappists, etc.). Nice display and pleasant to shop at. Staff knows enough to serve their not-so-demanding customers. | | sayravai (93), Helsinki, Finland | | March 24, 2006 [ Updated July 23, 2007 ] A clean and neat, spacious shop in a very central location (right next to the central square / Belfort). The prices unfortunately reflect that, and there are very few rarities. Did find (7/2007) a few beers not available in other Bruges shops. |
