By the way, if you are in the Philadelphia area, the owner of de Garre, Carl, recommends the Monk's Bar.

Dude, we prb have more Belgian beer bars and beer than any prb place in the states ....Heck, Garrett Oliver posted on Beeradvocate.com that Phila is the largest market for Belgian beer in the US. Monks is the shizzle.
