Antwerp Beer Tour
The second city of Belgium and home to the biggest port in the country, Antwerp is perhaps the world’s beer culture capital.
The beer trend ensures that niche beers with a very distinct flavour are able to capture a place on the beer menu. And that’s good news.
More and more ultra-hoppy beers and heavy stouts are emerging. Until recently, stout was as good as dead. Now it’s back and in different variants, with alcohol percentages ranging from a mild four to a sturdy twelve percent.
New beer brands dare to push the boundaries of flavour. Gageleer, for example. A beer that is noticeably flavoured – with bog myrtle, which was very popular in the Middle Ages.
Our expert beer guide will further unravel the secrets of beer with you, by taking you on a beer and genever gin tasting experience, paired with small food dishes and chocolates.
In between the tastings we pay a visit to the Seef brewery, see part of the installations of the port and the old town.
