Belgian Beer

After a really busy couple months, I'm ready to get back to focusing on our trip and one of the most important aspects of that trip: beer.

I don't have any doubts that there will be beer all through Belgium, but it might be cool to visit a brewery and get a tour. Stella Artois is there. Also Duvel, Chimay, Delirium Tremens (the one with the pink elephants).

Belgium is pretty small and we'll have a car for much of the time, so we can pretty much go anywhere we want.

I don't know if I've ever had "lambic" but they sell it at Trader Joe's and they make it at a place in Brussels that's easy to get to: http://www.cantillon.be/. So we should check that out.

And we should try to visit this monastery where they, apparently, make the best beer in the world: http://www.westvleteren12.com/. We'll see about that.
