All About Belgian Beer
Belgium has a long history of brewing beers which dates back to the era when beer was brewed in monasteries.
Belgian beer is accredited with the maximum number of beer varieties in the world, with around 500 standard variants produced on a regular basis. Include one-off productions and the number gets doubled! Imagine choosing from a thousand varieties of beer, right from the lightest pale lager to Flemish red!
Now, the obvious question: Why/How did they start producing that many varieties?
