What our guests say
★★★★★
Amazing from start to finish!
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!

Doctor Beer .. He knows!
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.

A memorable and unique experience
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
Everything you need to know
How many people can join a private event?
From 6 to 30+ guests. Intimate guided tastings work best for 6–15 people, while larger groups enjoy a workshop format with several tasting stations. For groups over 30, contact us for a bespoke solution.
What's included in a stag or hen party package?
The package includes 6–8 premium Belgian beer tastings, an expert beer sommelier for 2–3 hours, beer-themed group games and optional food pairings (Belgian chocolate or artisan cheeses). Fully customisable to your group.
How far in advance should I book?
Book 2 weeks ahead for weekday events and 3–4 weeks for weekends. Large groups (20+) or peak season (May–September) need 4–6 weeks. Last-minute bookings may be possible depending on availability.
Can you cater to non-beer drinkers?
Absolutely. We offer Belgian non-alcoholic drinks and accommodate dietary needs — craft sodas, fruit juices and premium mineral waters. Just let us know your requirements when booking.
Where are you located and how do we get there?
We are on Boulevard Anspach, 1000 Bruxelles, a 3-minute walk from the Grand-Place. Easy access from Central Station (5 min walk), metro lines 1 & 5, trams 3 & 4, with public parking nearby.
Which languages do you host in?
Our sommeliers are trilingual: English, French and Dutch. We can run your event in your preferred language or mix languages for international groups — one of our strengths for events in Brussels.
How much does a private event cost?
Private events start from €45 per person and are quoted fully bespoke. Email us your group size, occasion and the experiences you would like, and we will send a personalised quote.
Can I combine several activities?
Yes. We design bespoke combined programmes — for example a tasting at Doctor Beer plus a brewery visit and a Beer Treasure Hunt through Brussels. Contact us to build your half-day or full-day programme.
