Hello everyone!
This April newsletter is quite late, as I just returned from a lovely two-week Easter holiday without my laptop. It was great to disconnect and just be for a while, but now I’m definitely ready to go again.
March was a great month, thanks to the holiday it already seems ages ago, but only a few weeks ago I went to Lyon for the Concours International de Lyon. I got some very interesting categories to judge, like smoked beers and specialty beers, and made some unexpected discoveries. I also visited the first Ostara Beer Festival in Brussels. It really was a big hit, such a nice line-up of local beers and breweries and what a great crowd of craft beer lovers. I definitely hope it will be organised again next year.
May is already around the corner which means the bi-annual Tour de Geuze will take place very soon. I can absolutely recommend a visit to any of the participating breweries, so if you find yourself with a few empty hours in the weekend of 9/10 May, visit at least one of them. There is no entry fee and good vibes are guaranteed. That’s all for now. Back to work, I hope to announce some exciting new tastings in next months’ newsletter.
Enjoy the sunshine!
Cheers, Carien
