Overview

Everybody loves a good food pairing, and Belgium has one of the best: moules and frites. Think of it as the fancier version of the Aussie favourite that is fish and chips — because the fact that seafood and potato go well together is something that every nation clearly knows. Throw in a cold brew, and it's heaven in a meal.

It's also on the menu at Brewski's one-day Moules & Frites & Biére festival, which takes over the Petrie Terrace bar on September 10. Mussels, fries and beer will be served up in abundance for a tasty Sunday session from 12pm.

Given all things Belgian are in the spotlight for the day, that extends to the tipples flowing through the taps, with seven types on offer. Grab a Rodenbach or Boon for the country itself, or try Belgian-style offerings from Australia, the US and New Zealand. A Hallertau Flemish Giant, anyone?
