The World on Wheels crew gets out of the patio this week and goes on location to Lucky Baldwin's Pub in Sierra Madre, California just east of Pasadena. There's also a Lucky Baldwin's in Old Town Pasadena. It's the 11th annual Belgian Beer Festival where, in their words, the largest selection of Belgian beers in the world are served on tap.
Maybe, I don't know. But there are 46 taps and 29 of them (on this day) are dedicated to the Belgian brew. The kegs are rotated, so what's on tap today may not be what's available on Monday. I do know that they will be serving around 60 Belgians on tap during the festival, which happens in February and again in the summer.
The way it works is this... 6 oz tastes are $4 with an extra dollar tagged on for the ultra-premium brews. Pints are $7-9 dollars. You can get a package with a souvenir glass and t-shirt for $20. The glass comes filled with whatever brew you want. Come in anytime during the next year, and get a dollar off of your beer. It's not as good as it sounds because the glass is only 12 oz. and they usually sell pints. You can see the glasses at the end of part 2 of the video.
I'd put the entire video up at once, but YouTube only allows 10 minutes at
a time, so I have to break it into two parts.
Here is part 1 of the video...
and here is the conclusion...
Enjoy!

I have only tried a few Belgian beers, but I've enjoyed them all. I would like to go to a festival like this to try some new ones.
ReplyDeleteI am not a big beer drinker but heard Belgian beers are good. Would love to try different flavors. Just enjoyed an Oktoberfest recently and interesting to see all the different flavors and brands that we don't have here in the US.
