★★★★★
We had an absolutely fantastic beer tasting experience with Doctor Beer in Brussels. It was just me, my dad, and my sister on the tour, and he really tailored everything to us. We got to enjoy a great mix of beer tasting and a guided tour, tried Belgian beers carefully selected for our tastes, and even received personal recommendations for other Belgian beers we should try — and he was completely spot-on with every single one. On top of that, he gave us excellent restaurant tips that made the rest of our trip even better. Doctor Beer is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about what he does. Highly recommended!
★★★★★
Simply fantastic!! Doctor Beer so knowledgeable and answered all the questions we had. And he was able to customize the experience according to each one of us taste buds. Increíble! Highly recommend.
★★★★★
My dad and I had a private beer tasting experience with Doctor Beer back in February on our last evening in Brussels, and it was such a memorable and unique experience. We had a lot of fun, learnt a lot, and Dimitri himself was such an interesting and charismatic guy to spend an evening in a Belgian bar with! He also took the time the next day to help us with our selection of beers to take home as gifts.

Frequently asked questions
Our standard pairing experience includes 4 premium Belgian beers (Trappist, Lambic, Abbey or craft) expertly matched with a curated selection of artisan Belgian cheeses, Belgian chocolate, traditional specialties or artisanal candies — depending on the beers of the day. Each pairing is explained by a certified beer sommelier, with full tasting notes, water and palate cleansers included.
The standard Belgian beer & food pairing lasts about 2 hours. That’s enough time to savour each pairing, learn the principles of harmony and contrast, and ask the sommelier anything you want. Premium and private sessions can run up to 3 hours for a more in-depth experience.
Absolutely. Our certified sommelier adapts every session to your knowledge level. Whether you have never paired beer with food before or you already collect Trappists, you’ll learn something new in a friendly, no-pressure atmosphere — no prior beer knowledge required.
It depends on the beers of the day — that’s what makes each session unique. You may discover artisan Belgian cheeses with Trappist ales, Belgian chocolate with Quadrupels, traditional Belgian specialties (charcuterie, local spreads) with Saisons or Lambics, and artisanal candies with sour or fruit beers. The sommelier picks the pairings to reveal each beer’s character.
