When talking about the diversity of Belgium, the richness of Belgian beer culture is always mentioned. Over 100 breweries produce more than 400 beers - some following ancient recipes, while others boldly experiment with new flavor creations.

Whether in tiny kitchen breweries or in the walls of centuries-old breweries. Whether in monasteries, in highly modernized facilities, or in massive industrial plants - everywhere, a tradition that is authentically Belgian is followed, preserved, and cherished.

This is also a delight for visitors, as many breweries invite guests to take a behind-the-scenes look at the art of brewing.

19 suggested routes through Belgium invite exploration and showcase the entire spectrum of Belgian breweries - with all their unique characteristics and, of course, the beer.

The book delves deep into the origins of brewing and describes its development - interpreted by today's protagonists of this culture: brewers and beer drinkers.

Naturally, it also includes addresses of insider pubs, special souvenir shops, and merchants who deliver across borders. Cooking recipes enhance the excursions, and the respective website addresses make trip planning easier.

This book is a warm invitation to discover the Kingdom of Belgium in a different way: exciting and informative. And through authentic anecdotes and personal reflections, it is very entertaining.
