World Business Report

Available for over a year

The history of Belgian beer stretches back centuries to medieval monks, and now Unesco is being asked to add the drink to its Intangible Cultural Heritage list. Beer sommelier Jane Payton explains why Belgian beer is deserving of such recognition, but first Benjie Guy takes to the streets of London to find out what people know about the drink.
