Belgium is a beer lover's paradise. With microbreweries everywhere, we found this quaint little two-man operation making the most unique beer. Caracole Brewery was a local favorite around Namur Belgium and a local chef used its high alcohol sweet dark ale to create this delicious pork dish. Kevin Brauch, The Thirsty Traveler
