Olivier, a colleague of mine organized a beertasting for us (off working hours of course :-) ).
He did a 2y course "biersommelier" so he obviously knows a lot about the subject.
This was his selection:
As I had never tasted Chimay Dorée it was quite interesting. Most of the other beers are well known but the tasting was aimed at beginners.
