Amazing Belgian beer history - We enjoyed our tour a lot and with our guide (Tom), he talked us about the history of beer in Belgian, along with tasting some of different beers. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends visiting Brussels.

Entertaining, informative and fun. :) - As a restaurateur and craft beer fan, I can only say that it was a highly informative and entertaining beer tasting. We had a great guide in Julie, it wasn't boring for a second. She also provided us with a list of hotspots with her favorites for food and drink. Highly recommended.

Sweet but quiet host, beer was good - Tour guide was great, spent some time explaining the different beers and their importance to Belgium. The beers we had were delicious! My group was fun too, so I was able to meet some new people and spent a while talking to them. My only qualm was that my tour guide was super quiet, and it was hard for anyone to hear what she was saying. We would have benefitted from having microphones or having her speak up. There was also a very drunk bachelor party, that didn’t help with this situation. Overall a good tour, but wasn’t able to get much info
