Beer is the proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy »

Belgian beers and cheeses are numerous.
Mostly monks have contributed to the Belgian cheese specificity.

On the current territory of Belgium more than seventy abbeys existed in the order of the Cistercians alone. Several of these have continued the tradition of pure artisan production.
Not only of cheese, but "everything that goes with it"...: bread, artisanal syrups and especially the famous abbey beers which are making of Belgium "the"country of beers. |

Date & timing: to agree (total duration +- 3h/3,5h).
The program is composed of 2 elements:
SHOOTING WITH THE CROSS-BOW (1h)
We will welcome you at one of the oldest belgian corporations, officially recognised in 1213 by the Duke of Brabant and is intimately linked with the earliest history of the town of Brussels.
It acquired a social position, that grew throughout the “Ancien Régime”, in particular because of its founding of the church of Notre-dame au Sablon.
The martial role of the Guild diminished little by little, to give way to peaceful tests of skill, to which important notabilities were invited.
Charles V, the Count of Egmont and the Infanta Isabella came to be installed as ‘Kings of the Shoot’.
In 1853, the Belgian King Leopold the first, donated the Guild a banner and a collar for the King of the Shoot. Since then, the Guild added ‘Royal et Noble’ to its name.
King Albert I, King Leopold III, King Bauduin and King Albert II visited the Guild or accepted the Grand Mastership. King Philip accepted recently.
Program: welcome, introduction, initiation & drink (one beer, coffee, tea or soft drink), contest (in team or individual).
The best shooter receives a souvenir offered by the President of the Guild.
The Dinner (+- 2h) in a classy restaurant,
5'-10' walk from the Guild:
Starter
Main course
Dessert
White & red wine/ Water/ Coffee or tea
