    Iconic beer bar in Brussels, there is another one at Place Fontainas, being this one the original Moeder. Great variety of beers and nice food, crowd is lively in a great atmosphere, very kind staff. A must in Brussels.

    A must stop beer destination in Brussels. Always a great variety of beers on draft and in bottles, with lots of rarities if you're willing to pay for them. They always have at least one or two Cantillon beers on tap, and a few other local selections. The crew is great, very knowledgeable about the beers and the scene around town. Jean the owner is a great guy, and very passionate about beer.

    Idyllic bar situated in and by fantastic buildings. Beers on the outdoor patio was great in the sun and they had smiling and service- oriented staff. Great cheese- board to go with the beer.

  • 5/5 Leon J. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice and cozy place with an amazing and varied choice of beers of all kinds. The waiters are also great and can offer advice on which beer to try based on your tastes. The cheese and snacks were great as well. Highly recommended

    Just finished a company event at this fantastic place. Beer, chees, meats and bread. Thank you Joe for your enthusiasm and knowledge. You really made this into a speciall experiance which will not be forgotten. I wish winds of change come your way and enable many more people to enjoy what we just had. Keep up the awesome work!

    The mother of all Lambic beers. This is where you want to be for a wide array of Belgian beers. A little unassuming cafe with a rickety terrace and beer connaisseurs working in the service. There is another Lambic in town but it’s oriented towards tourists, this one is where the locals come to enjoy they niche beers while playing cards, chatting or smoking a cigarette.

    Best selection of spontaneous ferments ever!

  • 5/5 DJ Adams (. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent bar with friendly, passionate and knowledgeable proprietor. Lovely airy place with good views thru the large windows. Comfortable tables, great selection of gueze, local and other beers, with a small snack menu too. I will be returning when I'm next in Brussels. Recommended.

    Hands down best place for beer connoisseurs I have ever been. Cozy, not geeky, very wellcomming and attentive service, simple yet professional advising on what to drink. Beer selection was wide and interesting, for snacking got some very tasty cheese plate. Went there on Tuesday night of early October, it wasn't very busy but great atmosphere indoors and airy outdoors. Very recomended.

  • 5/5 Don D. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic bar with a world class beer selection, both fresh draft and try extensive bottle cellar. A true classic.

  • 5/5 J G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great spot for some incredible beers. The Fontainas site is very good too but this one is a must visit!

  • 5/5 Sean D. 1 year ago on Google
    These folks know their beer! Try the Gueuze Tilquin for an adventurous sour... Or whatever the staff recommends - they're brilliant!

  • 5/5 Farokh S. 1 year ago on Google
    Authentic pub with super friendly bar keeper. The beers were delicious. If you want some special Belgian beers, this is the place to be.

  • 5/5 cristina C. 11 months ago on Google
    To all beer lovers out there, you can find all kinds of beers, surely you will enjoy ,the people are friendly. Come and enjoy 😉

  • 5/5 Antoine W. 11 months ago on Google
    Probably the best place to taste and enjoy beers in Brussels. They have more beer than you can imagine and they are so good at proposing the exact beer that you could like as long as you can tell them what type of taste you like or are looking for

  • 5/5 John Einar R. 9 months ago on Google
    A nice gem worth a walk. Plenty Lambic beers as you might have guessed from the name,but they also have a few other types of beers, wine and drinks. And they have a beer take away. Very friendly staff. Not a place you go to dine as food selection limited, but you're here for food right? Recommended!

  • 5/5 Colin B. 6 months ago on Google
    Super comfortable modern brasserie style, great service, fantastic beer list.

  • 5/5 Edward B. 8 months ago on Google
    The original and the best out of the two locations, with a more local vibe, but with still a fantastic selection of world class lambics. Guy serving was very efficient and friendly too.

  • 5/5 Nikita S. 2 years ago on Google
    Chill and cool vibes here! Very delicious beer from the tap! Staff were very nice and recommended us some good beer! :)

  • 5/5 Nikos I. 2 years ago on Google
    Area is not the best, but the place feels quite cozy

  • 5/5 林泽龙 2 years ago on Google
    Great place for a drink. Great drink, amazing service.

  • 5/5 Maaike 2 years ago on Google
    Great beers and nice vibes, inside as well as outside on the terrace

  • 5/5 Irene H. 5 years ago on Google
    GO FOR BRUNCH, STAY FOR BEER! We came for the beer but had the best brunch we've had in Brussels. The beers are good quality and could have stayed for hours just sampling all that was on offer. The bar staff was helpful, engaging and friendly. Outdoor and a range of indoor seating options that would suit solo, couples and groups.

  • 5/5 Tristan M. 4 years ago on Google
    Super vibe. Amazing choice of beers from small breweries. All you can eat raclette. Very tasty cheese available. Staff super nice. Friendly prices!

  • 5/5 Rachel C. 4 years ago on Google
    Interesting tour. Of course, hands down the best in the world...the beer speaks for itself.

  • 5/5 정대팔 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Emile S. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome people. Good bar. If you need any advise on beers they'll make you travel through Belgium and beyond. kudoos to Benjamin a pro that will guide you to your favourite beer. (He speaks English german french...)

  • 5/5 arafna 1 year ago on Google
    Nice staff, good local craft beers. The cheese and meat plate was very good. The beer list was kinda hard to read if you don't speak French, since the style of the beer wasn't on it, but the staff helped and translated.

  • 5/5 Nicola Francesco D. 2 years ago on Google
    The best selection of beer ever. Excellent service. Fantastic atmosphere. It couldn't be better. Definitely the best beer place in Belgium

  • 5/5 Eric H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place to try Belgian beers with an owner with real passion for the craft. He will advise you very well.

  • 5/5 Margaux K. 2 years ago on Google
    Big and exceptional selection of craft beers, great advice from the staff if you can't quite choose one. Laid-back atmosphere. Great place for locals and tourists alike.

  • 3/5 Patrick Gonçalves M. 2 years ago on Google
    Server spoke English which is good. Could barely understand his accent (thick French). Light shining in ur eyes from where menu is. Brewery was too small to read on menu. No menu besides what was on the board. Great beer selection.

  • 5/5 Nicolas da Luz D. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best places (if not the best) to get beer in Brussels: not only do they have an amazing selection (that changes regularly so you can discover new things), but the staff is extremely knowledgeable about beer, and can give you great advice! Just describe what you like, and they will find something for you. Or let them guide you. They are the sommeliers of beer. It was my favorite over 10 years ago, and it still is now.

  • 5/5 Lara M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great beer selection, the staff is amazing and always have a great recommendation ready if you don't know what to order. If you're in the area, you can't skip this one!

  • 5/5 Matt G. 3 years ago on Google
    Exceptional beer café with unparalleled selection, and Jean is a gracious host. Attended a special tasting event during Toer De Geuze 2019.
