5 out of 5 stars I never go to Belgium without it   June 15, 2005
 26 out of 26 found this review helpful

Yet again, Tim Webb delivers the essential guide for discerning beer-lovers visiting Belgium. Unlike Michael Jackson, who though knowledgeable seems reluctant to criticise brewers however bad their beers are, Tim tells it like it is. If a brewer uses dodgy flavourings or just simply produces poor beer, you can rely on Tim to tell you. But the upside of this is that if he rates a beer highly, you know it's going to be worth trying.
The book has two main sections: the breweries section, where Tim describes every Belgian brewery and its beers, then the cafes section where the best bars in each town and city in the country are detailed, with brief introductions to the towns themselves and useful tourist information.

My only personal disappointment with this edition is that coverage of the Netherlands has been dropped. Originally this was a guide to the whole of Benelux and although dropping Luxembourg (where there was only ever one decent bar anyway, which has closed) was no real loss, I found the Netherlands information useful. However, dropping Dutch information has made more space available for more detailed coverage of Belgium and the addition of a far more comprehensive review of places where wonderful Belgian beers can be enjoyed in Britain as well.

Definitely an indespensible book if you're serious about beer.
