    Brussels

    5. november 2022, Belgien ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

    So we slept. But too much. I crashed at 9. Woke up at 12:30am, then 3:30 then suddenly it was 12:30pm. 😪😪😪😪😪😪

    We went for lunch cause I was starving at some grill house and got some streaks with mash potato and mushroom sauce.
    Amazing.
    My big complaint though is they didn’t do free tap water and the iddi biddi baby bottle they gave us was €5.50
    I will forgive cause food was mouthwatering.

    Got waffles on the way home. Shaped like vagina ad penis’ because why not. Will got a mannequin piss one with honey cause he is super adventurous. 🙄 I got a giney with white chocolate and strawberries. The chocolate was saaaaaa good.
    Went back to hotel to grab our stuff and headed to train station.

    Currently on the train and it stopped at a station for 15 mins for no reason which is not good for us. hopefully we make it in time to our tour.

    Tour 5:30. We arrived 5:29 cause we RAN from the station for about 800m

    Tour was terrific. My only disappointment was that it’s the weekend so the factory isn’t operational. I would have loved to see the belts sort all the bottles.
    Still.
    First up we watched a movie about the brewery.
    Apparently it’s 5th generation.
    HOWEVER.
    It was father then son then it wasn’t the daughter, it was the daughters husband who is being counted as 3rd generation. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
    Bud you aren’t related.
    She didn’t get a mention btw. Standard.
    4th generation is legitimate but his face for 3rd gen was a nope for me lol. Should be both their faces if she is the link. Otherwise that’s cheating. 😆

    Then a video about the robots they use to sort because we wouldn’t see them working. Don’t know what they do. Didn’t understand a lot of the tour 🤣🤣
    Just nodded along. Lots of fancy ass processes and terms for the fancy machinery. Sure thing. Great. Hahaha.

    Enjoyed seeing all the boxes and barrels and fermenting cylinders.
    They make 1 million bottles a day.
    It was surprisingly clean.

    They sell under a different name in Argentina because they won’t allow the name “Delirium” as that a disease or something haha.

    Lots of stock as it takes 4 weeks to make one beer.

    After the tour we had sampling of beer. I had a water which the guide was very put out about 😆
    Will got a shirt. Pleased for him. He never gets souvenirs lol.
    An excellent tour for only 12 euro each. Most of the guests (about 10 of us - 3 kids) would have made their money back from the free beers at the end haha.
    It was little awkward at the bar cause everyone else spoke Spanish and we were just standing there like dopes.

    A difficult tour to organize but very glad we went. And have not wasted the entire day 🥴

    Nearly back at central.

    Got pizza and pasta for dinner and ate in the room.
    Off to Ghent in the morning, pleased to see check in is 1:30 instead of 3 or 4.
