Another great beer bar
We were bimbling around the wonderful St Gilles district pub and bar hopping when we decided to drop into here for a couple of beers and what a great find. Walking in and you notice that this predominantly a beer bar,decor and furnishings are sparse but cool and there's plenty of seating options spread throughout this bar,there's 4 draught beer taps and 100's of bottled beers on offer,it's a cool bar and one I am so glad we found. We were here on a Thursday night and the bar was busy,after a quick study of the beers on offer I opted to have a Duvel beer ,this is my favourite beer and it's a beer I love to savour but weighing in at 8.5% why would you want to rush such a quality beer. These are the type of bars that bring me back to Brussels year after year and this bar is special. My Duvel beer was outstandingly good and while supping it I had a study of the big bottled range and spotted a beer from Brewdog Brewery and went for their 5am saint and again this was just one fantastic beer,we have a Brewdog bar in my home town of Liverpool and I have really developed a taste for their beers and the beer served here was fantastic. My twin brother Stephen also tried 2 beers,he had a light beer and a beer from Le Chouffe and he really enjoyed them. We really enjoyed our beers in here,between us we sampled 4 beers served in great condition before we moved on and for a first time visit we were very impressed with the great bar. Brasserie L'Egalite is really easy to locate,trams 3 4.51 to stop Parvis St Gilles drops you off practically by this bar and in an exciting area teeming with pubs,bars and restaurants. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday,9am till 5am. A great beer bar and well worth checking out.

No frills but ...
... what a great beer range ! Four large fridges beyond the bar hold hundreds of Belgian beers which means there is room for ones that you have not tried yet.
