July beer gathering

We are happy to inform you of our next beer gathering, coming up on Tuesday 21 July. As usual, our friends of the Japan-Belgium Society (JBS) will be joining us.
Since it is the Belgian National Day, we will celebrate with a small raffle.
If you feel like getting into the spirit, you are welcome (but by no means required) to wear something Belgian – whether that be a Belgium-themed outfit or simply the colours of the Belgian flag!
This time we are going back to L’ABREUVOIR トラフ, the bar run by BLCCJ member (and Belgian) Greg Van Passel.
The bar can accommodate up to 35 people, so it will be reserved just for us.
There is a nice selection of Belgian beers and some food options.

Event Details

Date: Tuesday 21 July
Time: from 19:00 onwards (L.O. 23:00, bar closes at 23:30)
