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.
