Belgians are extremely faithful to their local beers and take their brews as seriously as the French are about their wines. There are beers that are corked and wired the same way Champagne is, and some beers can mature in the bottle for up to six years. Similarly to wine, beer can be paired with certain dishes to create something truly magnificent. Just like wine, certain beers are paired with certain dishes to create the ideal food matches. Furthermore, each beer has its own distinctive glass, and colourful cardboard coasters. It’s just doesn’t work if every little detail has not been catered for.
Den Anker – situated at the V&A Waterfront – would love you to enjoy sampling the fabulous beers that they have available!
