well i have been to 12 of those and considering i've never been to north america that's not bad going i reckon. but what a strange list - belgo central in london? i've been but it's really no better than a Leuven here in NZ. and the Grand Place in Brussels at no2? sure i found a cool bar there, 'the black door', but it hardly felt like the centre of belgian brewing. having a beer with the cellerman at Cantillon, also in Brussels, after picking ones way through the cobwebbed fermenting area though? now there's a place to have a beer before you die.
14 and counting (and none in North America either). Hooray for pointless tickerism!
I agree there are some very strange choices there, particularly no. 74 which doesn't exist. On Piazza San Marco in Venice you'll only get insanely overpriced rubbish. De Halve Maan is a bit rubbish too.
