Back to school means back to Brussels and back to beer. What better way to start the new season than spending the first weekend back in Brussels at the stunningly beautiful Grand Place and savouring Belgian beers. It was heartwarming to see back good friends. But every beer festival also has a fun educational side to it. You will always learn something new and discover new beers such as the Pitcher beer from Limburg. Despite its high CO2 level this beer has a pleasant palate with forthcoming coriander and orange zest. I could see this beer working well with a dessert such as flan made with orange peel.

What to do on an late afternoon off??? Of course a beer related fun activity! Gave the new beer experience museum on the top floors of the old Brussels stock exchange a visit. The museum is a bit pricy, very sleek and reminding one of a theme park. The explanation about brewsters and the shift to male dominance in the beer world in the middle ages is too simplistic and I find it quite steep that breweries were asked to pay over a 1000 € so that their glass would be displayed in the wall of fame and beer glasses (hence many great small local breweries not represented), but hey ho the visit was still fun, especially given the great view from the exclusive roof top bar onto the city hall and the interactive side of the experience. Cheers to Belgian beers!

The notion of home - just like Canada I regard Bavaria as being my spiritual home. The article was published this week in a local Bavarian newspaper, but the picture merely offers a glimpse of what was a simply stunning evening. After a 900 km drive from Brussels I bumped into the Unertl family at one of my favourite restaurants in Bavaria. We had a wonderful time together, laughed a lot, shared stories and memories of my internship at the Unertl brewery. This wonderful brewers family has been handcrafting Unterl Weissbier for generations using the best locally sourced ingredients. For a weissbier Unertl weissbier is a wonderfully complex bier with a silky yet refreshing mouthfeel. It is not so much the places we go to, but the warm hearted people we meet and wonderful beers we share that make us feel right at home.

As always I have had a wholesome experience and a simply divine time in London. The exhibition "The femine power - the devine and the demonic" was a real treat and healing moment after a day of sadness. and of course I have encountered some beer drinking goddesses whilst in the exhibition. I have even managed to find a beer goddess at a local supermarket - in form of an English beer made with wild and champagne yeast called "Ninkasi". The cherry on top was a visit of the Le Cordon Bleu restaurant and lunchtime piano concert at St Bride, another saint or goddess linked to beer

Holiday time = hiking & Weissbier time🍺🥳Amazing end of summer short stay in Bavaria. Each Weissbier has its own signature taste. This beer style is a nourishing beverage and great choice after an intense hike😀
