Is a physical map or printed guide included?

No—this is entirely self-guided via your phone. All clues and directions are in a digital format; you'll need to download the puzzle content before starting.

How long does the walk actually take?

The core walk is about 1 hour of active walking. However, puzzle-solving, photo stops, and beer tastings will add 1–2 extra hours depending on your pace.

Do I need to buy a beer at every stop?

No—the tour passes bars and breweries, but you can choose to order or simply visit and observe. Many stops are landmarks or public spaces, not exclusively bars.

What's included in the EUR 12 price?

The price covers access to the 12 interactive puzzle clues and route via your phone. Beers, food, and any purchases at bars or shops are separate.

Can I do this tour alone, or is it better in a group?

It works equally well solo, in pairs, or in small groups. Each person or group works through the puzzles together at their own pace.

What if I don't know much about beer or Brussels history?

Perfect—the puzzles and clues are designed to teach you as you go. No prior knowledge is needed; the game unfolds the history and beer facts for you.

our host Pedro was nice enough, but the slow-cooked tagine felt a bit rushed honestly, and would only really suit you if youre not fussy, we hit 6 tastings.

our host Noa sorted everything for us and the warm baklava at the last stop was the highlight, and miles ahead of a similar food tour we tried in Bangkok.
