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!
