Aperçu

The events of the period between the two world wars had a big influence on daily life and on the Belgian Beer culture. From the roaring twenties to the popular World Exhibitions, from the American prohibition to the Great Depression: breweries were impacted immensely and had to adjust. Local beer experts Helene and Carien will be your hosts during these special workshops at their tasting rooms (one in Forest, the other in Jette). They will take the participants through the changes of this time and the impact on Belgian beer culture. You will learn more about the beer styles that were popular then and see what happened to those styles and to the Belgian breweries of those times. In collaboration with Hoppyz and Hoppiness Brussels. The workshop takes place in a private residence. The entrance door will be opened 5 minutes before the start of the workshop for those who have reserved a place. Please arrive on time and do not ring the bell beforehand, so you do not disturb earlier workshops. Photographs are permitted, but only with smartphones.
