    Oh look! The Belgian answer to Heineken.

    Nothing in a green bottle is worth drinking.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    Absolute truth.

    Beer either comes in a barrel or a brown bottle. Nothing else.

    Lighter bottles lets sunlight ruin the beer, while cans gives a different taste as well as foam it up.

    What about cans?

    Only Heineken export is bottled in green, isn't the same beer

    It isn't the best, but it's a fine beer

    As I said, the metal can screws up the taste and the tiny hole makes way too much foam. Undrinkable.

    I just find it hilarious that the part with the French name is Dutch-speaking (Flanders) and the part with the Dutch name is French-speaking (Walloon).

    Soap opera Belgium.

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Southern European actually, that where most of Serbia lies, but if you wanna pinpoint my exact location, I'm currently in central Europe, about 2.5 km away from central/southern Europe border . Not that there's anything wrong with eastern Europeans, of course...
