What They Say

delivery of Westvleteren 12
Just got my delivery of my order of 4 bottles of Westvleteren 12 (not cheap) from the Belgian Shop. I ordered the beer before I saw all the poor reviews, and after my order contacted them of my concerns. Bruno replied quickly considering time zone difference and answered all my questions. The delivery was perfect. Bubble wrapped bottles, popcorn styrofoam as a cushion, all bottles intact.
Had to leave this favorable, lengthy review so people know of my experience.
Proost,
J.R.

EXCELLENT FAST SHIPPING!!
The negative reviews on here are ridiculous and unfair! We have a pandemic and a backed up supply issue and IMPATIENT people need to realize that shipping can be delayed for various reasons! I just placed an order from Canada and I got my package in 8 days! Also, another friend of mine ordered in the summer and she got her package in 8 days as well! This is SUPER FAST shipping for international and considering what is going on in the world! Also, the shipping is insanely affordable! One website wanted 70.00 in Euros. The shipping here was only $12.50!! The Belgian Shop has EXCELLENT FAST AFFORDABLE SERVICE.
I will be ordering again! Thank you from Canada.

Very disappointing customer experience
I placed an order on Aug 2nd. Order was shipped on Aug 9th. Got a tracking number on Aug 13th. Then checked the status of the shipment and found out that the shipment has been rejected in the Belgium custom on Aug 13th. Today is Aug 25th. Sent multiple emails to the customer care but no response at all. Not even refunded the money. All gone! What kind of customer experience is this?

Excellent Service
Ordered a case (24 bottles) of Affligem Blonde in Dec 2020 and it arrived here in the United States in just under 30 days in perfect condition. The outside of the box was wrapped with some plastic cushioning and inside the crate had foam peanuts throughout so every bottle was well protected. Will definitely order again. Thanks!

order arrived well packaged
For those ordering from the USA, please note it takes time for orders to be shipped. I ordered a case of beer in December and received it perfectly as ordered last week. It was packaged incredibly well. I will order again in the future.
