 Classification
 There
is no single way to classify Belgian beers and trying to do it may be a
perilous exercise as passionate beer lovers will often disagree on the
choice of criteria or the designation of a given beer within a given
category. Most often, a mixed classification system is used: beers that
belong to a given tradition (Trappists and Abbey beers) or region of
production (Saison), or beers of a precise type (Pils, Amber). Often
both criteria coincide (Lambic, or Flemish old brown for instance) but
sometimes we will find very different beers under a same category
(Trappists and Abbey beers often offer 'dubbel' and 'tripel'
versions).
