Hey Belgiums speak Dutch too if you're in the North

Just scream for 'Bier!' and you'll be fine Smile

It's the "war" between french and dutch speaking in Belgium Mr. Green

In Bruxelles, just speak french (or english of course) and you'll be fine Mr. Green

Glad you liked the Chimay Blue Razz

But don't tell me you came there only to try a bear Very Happy

I think 'Brussel' is actually Dutch Pepper Razz

Nope

, Brussels is away from the south part (Wallonie Wallony in english ? lol) but is also a french part of belgium.
You can trust me Mr. Green

More or less 5 or 10% of people who live in Brussels are Dutch speaking. Others are French speaking for more than 75% and then there is also the european community... with all the other languages Mr. Green
