Visit De Bierboom on Lange Straat in Brugge: always has some interesting new beers at keen prices. Well worth the walk out to it.

I know Rudy and Christine his wife very well, but I’ll not mention it on here!

Can’t go wrong with Dupont Avec les Bons Voeux, superb every time.


Yes a great beer, and we’re visiting the brewery next Thursday so hopefully can drink at source


Any more for any more? I’ve my fingers crossed for finding blaeber at Cantillon but think the boats already sailed...



Oooh you lucky git. Saison Dupont is my all top fav beer. Had some on tap in Ghent, but one day I will go to the brewery to taste. Got a case of 12 75l bottles of Saison Dupont at Dranken Geers for 26 Euros and a case of Avec Les Bons Voeux for 34 Euros. Tasted one at the weekend and I am convinced SD is the greatest beer in the world.

Bless you Ian for saying nice things about a book six years out of date.

But... new edition is out! There were copies at GBBF. Just waiting for the web guy to update booksaboutbeer.com.

No blaeber at the moment unfortunately. There wasn’t a lot to take away but some nice things to drink there!

Girardin Kriekenlambic at La Fleur en Papier Doree in Brussels. Its in a box in the cellar behind the bar and you sometimes have to insist on it but its lovely.
Otherwise de la Senne are good
fab tip! 2 glasses swiftly finished alongside a beersel lambic and zinnebir
