Belgian Beer Fest: Overview

Beer Advocate’s Belgian Beer Fest was amazing. I was so wrapped up in beer-ing that I even forgot to get a Blegian waffle. oops. I’ve listed here everything that I can remember… kinda. Of course there were many many many more great beers, but these were the ones that stuck in my head (or gave out nice flyers) the most. Overall, the tripels were surprisingly un-amazing and mostly non-distinctive. I never thought I’d find myself getting bored of that same flavor. I’m coming to think of the “strong ale” and the quadruple as my favorites of the Belgian varieties, though all the others have plenty of potential. I also learned that Flemish sours can be good. Who knew?
