★ Travel: Miscellaneous Photos from Belgium (Spring 2014)
I finally traveled to Belgium for a personal holiday and had a fantastic time. Some photos will pop up in future posts but I wanted to share some of my favorites.
Highlights:

Zythos Beer Celebration 2014
Visiting Fantome Brewery in Soy, Belgium
The huge Pannepot Tasting w/ Mathieau
De Heeren van Liedekercke
Drinking old Oude Gueuze pretty much everywhere we went was incredible. Some of the stuff from the 80s was terrible but it was an incredible experience!
Fantome Brewery in Soy Belgium
DanyP, easily one of the most kind brewers I’ve ever met. Chatted with us for 2 hours sharing beers and giving a tour. Very open and interesting to chat with.
