De Nacht Van De Grote Dorst

[Lamnic]

I am so excited to be attending The Night of Great Thirst this year. It is taking place Friday, April 22nd 2016 in Eizeringen at In de Verzekering tegen de Grote Dorst. If anyone has any tips for the fest I'd love to hear them. I will also be in Copenhagen for two days prior and spending the weekend in Belgium, and would love to meet and share with any TBs.

I have apparently been talked into going by a friend visiting from Oregon (it didn't take much convincing. So I will be there.
All for meeting up, sharing, trading...

Cheers
Don

My girlfriend and I will also be attending. It is being held in a new location this year, Itterbeek instead of Eizeringen.

Hm where is that? Is it a different bar hosting?

Closer to Brussels. I wonder if it outgrew the previous location? I Google StreetView'd the address and I'm guessing it will be held in this park.

Not at Timmermans, down the street?

Edit: just saw the link, with the address--I understand the park likelihood now. Interesting choice.

Yup, they relocated the event because the previous location was too small.

IN!

If you need a few pointers to Copenhagen, check out my short city guide here.

For lambics, the two brand new bars Koelschip and Himmeriget are really the places to go.

Cool thanks for the tip! I've been following both bars on Instagram for a few weeks now salivating. Those are really the only two I've locked down to visit so far.

My wife and I are going to be in Brussels for NvdGD next month - very excited to meet (and drink with) some of y'all!

There will be the launch of the new brewery, Piggy Brewing Compagny, the day after the Nacht, at Malt Attacks!

To those of you who have been before... How much money should I be bringing tonight? Best way to get there? Any other tips? I haven't found a whole lot of info about this festival.

Only thing I know is to take the bus to Dilbeek

Yea it looks like the 118 from Midi/Zuid is what we'll be doing.
