Guide to Belgian Beer and Breweries in Belgium

If people know only one thing about Belgium, it’s that Belgium is home to great beer. The beer culture in Belgium is deeply entrenched and the country is home to 6 of the 11 Authentic Trappist Breweries. The exact number of Belgian beers is contested at anywhere from 500 to 2000. With so many to choose from, it’s hard to know where to begin.
