A trip to Brussels for a beer festival

We left home around 7.30am this morning to get a train to London to get the Eurostar to Brussels.  We were off on a trip to a "Beligan Beer Weekend" with Gordon's staff social group, HASSRA.

We arrived in Brussels around 2pm and got a coach to our Hotel, the Sheraton on Place Charles Rogier.

After a short rest we went and explored the Comic Strip Museum and then found a bar for a quick drink.

Next we went and found the beer festival and had to buy some tokens for beer as well as for glasses. This was quite a queue but we then got to enter the enclosure on the Grand Place and sampled a few nice Belgian beers.  The portions were small as the alcohol content is high!

We had a pleasant dinner at a restaurant right on the Grand Place called L'Estaminet du Kelderke.
