Might wanna try at the fish market square (''Place St-Catherine'')

I was thinking that. Noordzee. Had a great lunch there a few years ago.

Gonna be in Brussels the weekend of October 15th. Would love to meet up/open some beers with some TB people over there. I'll also be in Copenhagen for about a week before that as well, so would also be down for some beers there, too. I'll post more specifics about my plans once it gets a bit closer, but definitely feel free to reach out if you'll be around that weekend.

Any idea how much it costs to ship a 6 bottle shipper (5 750s, 1 375) that's <10kg from Brussels to Virginia? I've heard anywhere from $40-80?

Etre will ship 12 bottles for about €80. Just had someone do this with 5 boxes. Or if we meet towards the end of your trip I can ship for you from Lux 10kg = €43

Planning on sharing bottles at Moeder on Thurs 10/13 with a few people, but plenty of room for more. Also planning on Cantillon and 3F 10/14 and 10/15 and would love to share bottles if people are around!

Getting into Brussels on 10/15 AM, definitely interested in sharing some beers. Do you know where you'll be Saturday morning? Likely heading straight to a beer destination from the airport.

Sat morning should work. Meeting a friend just outside the city in mid afternoon/early evening so definitely down for late morning/early afternoon somewhere

hey guys,

so i just found out that november 11th is a holiday (Armistice day). does anyone know just how much is closed? i've emailed moeder/dhvl/3F and they are all open, but wasn't sure about other restaurants etc. i guess it doesnt matter as long as moeder etc is open, but just trying to figure out what i'm in for there with the holiday.

Call Nuetnigenough as well, you don't want to miss that place! I ate there two nights, had rabbit saddle cooked in Cantillon Gueuze and then steak frites another night and it is solid. Also has Lam, RdG, and other lambic as well which doesn't hurt any dinner

 

[ExPimp]

Just booked a flight with some friends and I'll be returning to Brussels at the end of March 2017. Yea, it's a long way off....
If any one wants to meet up and share some beers or swap just let me know. I'm sure I'll post again before I leave and one I have a bit more of an itinerary.

I'll be in Brussels from Nov 18th to 22nd. Plan on hitting up Moeder on Friday night, Cantillon Saturday, and In de Verzekering tegen de Grote Dorst/De Cam on Sunday. Maybe the Swan in Dworp if I have time. Let me know if you're interested in sharing.

Kind of unrelated but I plan on bringing some Other Half IPA cans as a nice gesture. Think it's appreciated, or will nobody care?

I get to Brussels on Friday morning and will be there all weekend with the girlfriend. Down to share and meet up on Saturday. Have a couple other people planning on meeting up that day as well, doing a few locations, maybe splitting some bottles

Probably not so much at Cantillon or Grote Dorst, they get so many anyway. I´m sure the guys at Moeder would be delighted.
If you go to Malt Attacks, cool beer store in Brussels, they´ll also be well received. I dropped off my last can of fresh Lizard King there in October. Great place to grab some Tilquin and Fantome bottles too

 

[Fahmie25]

Nuetnigenough is awesome. That is all.
