HUMANS OF BELGIAN BEER
Beer touches every element of humanity, from farming and agriculture, to science and engineering. It is deeply intertwined with our art, our music, our folklore, and our cuisine. It has shaped and been shaped by our experiences of war and of religion; by the languages we speak, and by the places we live.
Because of this connection, beer can be a window into the human condition. Especially in Belgium, with its rich brewing history and world-renowned beer culture.
Through their interactions with beer in Belgium, the Humans of Belgian Beer teach us how challenging it can be to navigate the world. They remind us that we are all fragile and easily broken. But they also celebrate our collective resilience, diversity, and strength, inspiring us to be the best version of ourselves.
The Humans of Belgian Beer are beautiful. And if you listen to their stories, you'll see that you are beautiful too.
