Brouwerij Dilewyns beers and Dupont's Cervesia and Biere De Beloeil arrive in U.S.

(Photo, above: Anne-Catherine Dilewyns and Vincent Dilewyns.)

Several fine Belgian brews just arrived stateside, and for the

first time.

Wendy Littlefield of Vanberg & Dewulf Importers informed

me yesterday that the first kegs of Vicaris Generaal and

Vicardin Tripel Gueuze have arrived in the U.S.

These beers were brewed at the new Dilewyns brewery in

Dendermonde, East Flanders. I plan to visit during my next trip

to Belgium.

The Tripel Gueuze is a blend of Vicardin Tripel and

Girardin White label gueuze. It is a very pleasant mildly

sour beer of 7 % abv. Yum!

Cervesia, aka Posca Rustica stateside.)

Also in the house: Dupont's superb gruut beer, Cervesia.

It is renamed as Posca Rustica for the U.S. market.

Dupont's Bière de Belœil also makes it first appearance

on this side of the pond.

Anyone else getting thirsty for a Belgian beer now???

I know I am!
