The Beer Museum ("Biermuseum")
This is really a hobby that almost got out of hand. It's a real must for real beer lovers. Here you can admire a vast collection of beer glasses from around the world, more than 7,000 of them and there are more than 5,000 bottles full of beer or bottles carefully emptied of their precious content.
Then there are the beer cards and enameled commercial plates such as the two plates below of the much regretted Krüger Brewery.
And of course this is also a pub where you can sample a beer or two. In fact Remi and Berenice serve more than 30 beers. There is for instance the "Beremietje", a beer brewed exclusively for the Beer Museum by the Lefevre Brewery of Quenast, a town about 25 miles south of Brussels. This is a 5.4% alcohol beer with a cool, spicy taste. A real must for real beer lovers.
The Beer Museum is the creation of Mr. Remi Dhaene. He also has 30,000 cigar bands and God knows how many matchbox labels. They don't make collectors like him no more. You can find him and his museum in the Kuipstraat number 36 in Ertvelde. Opening hours are from 18:00 hrs every Monday, Thursday and Friday, from 14:00 hrs on Saturday and from 10 o'clock in the morning on Sundays.
