Drinking whisky in Belgium seems wrong! So many good beers to choose from. I'll certainly be buying plenty of chimay and Jupiler when I go to Chimay later this year for EBI. You Belgians certainly are very tolerant of people having a good time  |

Crikey, if I lived in Belgium I'd sign my soul over to Sint sixtus so I can drink westvleteren 12 every day for the rest of my life.
