In the lead up to 2012 Belgian National Day, Stella Artois transforms Fort Mason’s Herbst Pavilion into a Belgian Beer Market  for a free one-night-only fair and festival celebrating all things Belgian called The Taste of Belgium.

Play the traditional game of Boules, attend a free Beer School (led by World Draught Master Champion Chris Myers) plus stroll the Belgian Beer Market complete with grass (fake of course) green carpet, picnic tables, umbrellas, strung lights and a wooden boardwalk.   

Plus local chefs go head to head in a Mussles Throwdown showcasing an event-exclusive mussels recipe for judges to sample and attendees to purchase and enjoy.
