In the 15th century, the Bishop of Tournai eagerly receives his tithe of beer, a precious commodity that symbolizes prosperity and celebration. The engraving captures the essence of this historical moment, highlighting the significance in medieval society. Moving forward in time, a captivating tapestry from Tournai depicts vintagers diligently harvesting grapes for wine production. However, it is not only wine that flows through these ancient towns; they can equally cherished as they bring joy to locals and visitors alike. As we journey to Leerdam, a town gate painting transports us to the 19th century. Amidst bustling streets and vibrant markets, one cannot help but notice the presence being transported with care. These vessels serve as a reminder of an era when craftsmanship and trade thrived hand in hand. Stepping into a cozy inn during the 17th century reveals peasants enjoying their leisurely moments while puffing on pipes filled with fragrant tobacco. Among them stand sturdy wooden tables adorned with frothy mugs resting upon beer barrels - symbols of conviviality and relaxation. Returning to Tournai's rich tapestry tradition, another masterpiece showcases wine pressers hard at work extracting every drop from luscious grapes. Yet again, nearby lie stacks awaiting their turn to quench thirsts and create lasting memories. Venturing further back in time brings us face-to-face with an extraordinary sight: a sperm whale stranded on Noordwijk beach in 1614. This monumental event serves as a stark reminder that even amidst nature's wonders lies man's insatiable desire for exploration - perhaps fueled by thoughts of sharing tales over pints poured straight from sturdy beer barrels. The Tower of Babel stands tall as an enduring symbol representing mankind's ambition throughout history. In this context too, one can imagine ambitious brewers striving tirelessly to perfect their craft within towering breweries where beer barrels overflow with liquid gold.
