Beer Tourism Case Study – Belgium Is Leading the World

Long a staple of the wine industry, the hottest trend in the beer industry is Beer Tourism, which puts heads in beds of local hotels, rear ends in seats of local restaurants, and thirsty people into breweries. And Belgium is leading the world, from its Trappist breweries to its beer culture being recently designated as a UNESCO World Heritage to the forthcoming “temple to Belgium beer” planned for the previous Brussels stock exchange building. Our speaker is Krishan Maudgal, who specializes in providing management and marketing services to the beer industry in Belgium.
