Vague and subjective descriptions of beer are now a thing of the past. Here is finally the ultimate beer book in which passion meets science. For two years, the Flemish Institute for Biotechnology subjected 250 different Belgian beers to thorough chemical analyses and an objective panel of scientific guinea pigs. The result is this complete guide, that - for the first time ever - fully breaks down the complex composition of our favourite drink in an understandable way for every beer lover.
Now you will finally get to know which is your preferred aroma and which are the similar tastes and types in the enormous range of beers that Belgium has on offer.
