Als bierliefhebber heeft Liselot me heel wat kunnen bijbrengen. We kwamen op leuke plekken in Gent en konden proeven van eerder ongewone bieren. Ik had mijn bierboek bij waarbij elk 2e bier gratis is en in ruil krijg ik een stempel. Zo kon ik haar ook iets bijbrengen dat ze niet kende.

Erg leuk om meer te weten te komen over verschillende soorten bier. Ook een erg leuke gids die er heel veel vanaf wist.

Dankzij Liselot kregen we de kans om kennis te maken met niet-alledaagse, authentieke bieren. Zelden zo'n enthousiaste en gepassioneerde gids meegemaakt, ze leeft voor haar vak en doet er alles voor om ons als bezoekers het naar de zin te maken. Ze kon op alle vragen antwoorden, we hebben veel bijgeleerd. Dank voor deze fijne dag Liselot!
