After a days work at my apartment on Sunday, I finished the night with this dubbel. It was creamy, malty, and a rich brown color. For my first beer at home, it proved to be a good impulse choice at the grocery store a few days earlier. My apartment here has a limited choice of glassware, so I went with a wine glass...my usual.
Five weeks in Belgium with the goal of sampling 25 of the best Belgian beers!
During my 8 months in Zagreb, I was enjoying the great beer, Karlovačko, trying to avoid Ožujsko, and having a few Pans here and there. Beer selection in Zagreb was limited but local brews were available during my travels throughout the region. In Serbia I became a fan of Lav, in Montenegro it was nikšičko but now, I'm in Brussels for 5 weeks and thoroughly looking forward to sampling the expertise of the Belgian brewers and the variety of beers they have to offer. I'm seeking to experience as many of these beers as possible and chronicle this adventure on this blog. My initial goal was 50 beers, then I realized this meant 10 new beers a week. While I'm sure I could handle this, I'm actually here to work so 25 is a much more reasonable goal :-) Check out the blog for updates from my stay and feel free to leave comments or suggestions about your favorite Belgian beers.
