A new Belgian blog; the 4th year for Max's Belgian fest

My good friend — and frequent Belgian travelist and beer writer — Chuck Cook has just started a blog to report on his beer travels and to offer links to his numerous beer articles and photos. He calls it:

Belgian beer and travel

If you're a good beer fan and you don't know Chuck, you should ... and you will now!

Since 1994, I have visited Belgium 16 times, and toured 60 Belgian breweries. I have written for such publications as Ale Street News, All About Beer magazine, Beers of the World Magazine, BeerAdvocate magazine, CAMRA What's Brewing, Celebrator Beer News, Delta Sky, The Gotham Imbiber, and Great Lakes Brewing

Appropriately enough, his first posting is on the draft (77+) and bottle (130+) lineup for Max's Belgian Beer Fest in Baltimore, Maryland, where he (and I, and many others) will be next weekend, 15-17 February. As Chuck puts it:

On this side of the Atlantic, it doesn't get much better than this!!

He has created a companion photo site at Flickr: Belgian Beer Specialist. Blog on, brother!
