I Think most Belgians would be mortified if you call Leffe or Duvel
'lagers', they are top fermented brews very similar to English ale.
Only the tourists really drink the lager. Most cafe's in Belgium have
a 'beer menu' with a choice of anything up to 100 + ales. - Try the
Trappist brews or if you're bold go for the unfiltered 'Geueze' by
Cantillon - makes a pickled egg something you give to the baby by
comparison.
