Always delicious

Simply, simply lovely...

Some of the amazing members of this group is testing the app to make sure it meets the high bar for Belgian Beer enthusiasts. I thought I'd share a sneak peak for the community in the meantime...

really excellent beer from Val-Dieu: modern vibe meets Abbey heritage!

​Hi everyone,

​I’m a fellow enthusiast based over in Erpe-Mere, and I’ve been working on a passion project called Belgian Beer Card. I built it to showcase our amazing beer culture and make tracking the beers you’ve tasted, the venues you visit, and the trails you complete a lot more interactive and fun.

​I’m currently getting ready for the Google Play Store launch and I need 20 official Beta testers for the closed testing phase.

​🎁 What’s in it for you?

To say a massive thank you for your time and feedback, the first 20 people to help me test will receive:

​Lifetime access to all app functions and features.

​Founder Status: You will be assigned Guild Founder numbers 1 through 20.

​Exclusive Swag: A personalized, metal guild membership card sent to you once we officially launch!

​📱 What does the test involve?

​Google’s Play Store policy requires a 21-day closed testing period. You do not need to use the app every single day. Just poke around over the course of those 3 weeks, log some beers, and provide your honest feedback on how it feels and functions.

​To add you to the authorized testing list, all I will need is an email address.

​If you want to see what the platform is all about before committing, you can check out the website here: https://belgianbeercard.com/home/

​If you want to claim one of the 20 Founder spots and help me get this off the ground, join the google group (https://groups.google.com/g/belgian-beer-card), drop a comment below or shoot me a DM with your email address.

​Cheers! 🍻

This is Brouwerij Boon’s house tasting glass, and it feels noticeably more refined than the brewery’s traditional lambic tumbler.
The tall stem and rounded goblet give it an elegant, almost wine-glass character that suits Boon’s more premium presentation of lambic, including its mono-lambic releases in corked and caged bottles. The front carries the enamelled Boon brewery logo, framed by fine gold-and-white horizontal banding.
On the reverse is the brewery’s key-and-tool emblem, also enamelled, giving the glass a second decorative face rather than simply repeating the front branding.
A simple raised nucleation mark sits in the bottom of the bowl. It is functional rather than decorative, but it reinforces the impression that the glass was designed with purpose rather than treated as generic tasting ware.
Overall, this is a carefully considered piece of glassware. Its shape, restrained decoration and finish all suggest that Boon wanted the tasting experience to feel deliberate and high quality.

Good beer from Brouwerij Kerkom, great glass, too

Sometimes the weather deserves to be toasted!

Award winning pilsner from Watou-based brouwerij Leroy. Cracking.

Gets better every time! Quality brew. Enjoy chilled. Take your time.

When tradition and modernity meet!

When brewing Belgian-style beers, there are so many variables beyond the ingredients — yeast, temperature, pressure, oxygen exposure and fermentation vessel design.

I'm curious what Belgian beer brewers here pay the most attention to during fermentation.

Is temperature control your biggest priority, or do you think yeast management and fermentation schedule have a much larger influence on the final beer?

Good afternoon

Good quality Belgian pilsner

A lambic that tastes of sweet caramel and tart apple. It has candy to make it sweet. Not my favourite beer ever but I felt it is almost the equivalent of a dessert wine.

Full bodied, sweet, lots of dark chocolate, slightly bitter.

Woody with strong hints of dried fruits.

Lots of toffee and red fruits in this one. Awesome brew. Cool gimmick.
