Belgian beer context
Brewing traditions broader than one secret recipe
Belgian beer culture includes Trappist and abbey associations, spontaneous fermentation, lambic traditions and a wide range of regional styles and serving customs. UNESCO recognizes Belgian beer culture as intangible cultural heritage. This quest turns that real diversity into a fictional recipe mystery; it does not claim that one hidden formula explains the country’s brewing history. Playable languages: English, French, Dutch, German.
