KBZ - great trip report. Very informative. You should get your title changed to "Beer Connoisseur" or something.
JaBlue - actually a beer KBZ rec'd to me once, one that is widely available and a good intro to Belgian beer is
Delirium Tremens. They serve it at a decent amount of bars I go to, and it's at my local liquor store. Very tasty.
