There are almost as many beer styles as there are breweries in Belgium and with so many options, you can't go wrong.

BLANCHE: Sometimes called a wheat beer - it is light and cloudy, with a hint of citrus. White beers are young beers;

LAMBIC: A non-malted wheat beer naturally fermented by wild, airborne yeasts. This draft beer is unique to the Brussels area;

GUEUZE: A blend of two or more Lambic beers to create a secondary fermentation with a Champagne-like sparkle;

TRAPPISTE: Dark ales brewed by monks according to centuries-old methods;

BROWN BEERS: An interplay of caramel-like malty sweetness and sourness gained from several months of maturation;

RED BEERS: Produced from red barley, these beers are aged in oak. Fruity, sweet & sour, very thirst-quenching!

GOLDEN BEERS: These beers are similar to Pilsner lagers using very pale malts and hops, while retaining ale yeasts;

KRIEK: Created in Brussels, A Lambic beer in which further fermentation is brought about with the addition of cherries or raspberries;
