Belgian beer, expat help and university for working professionals. Listen back to the reports from this week's show on 98.8FM in Brussels

Brussels Beer Weekend
A highlight of the year, the Belgian Beer Festival is a remarkably convivial event where people from all over the world enjoy the beer from 44 large and small Belgian brewers in the magnificent setting that is the Grand-Place. We hear from brewers and imbibers.

Expat Welcome Desk
Whether you’re newly arrived or been here for years, sometimes you need help with the day-to-day practicalities of Brussels life. Last year, the Expat Welcome Desk helped more than 1,600 people solve problems with accommodation, residence permits, income tax and much more – making a bridge between the international community and the Belgian administration. Amélie Bovy, legal adviser at the Expat Welcome Desk for the past five years, explains more. Call 02.430.66.00, emailinfo@commissioner.brussels or arrange an appointment at 63 Avenue d'Auderghem in the EU district.

Bruzz International
Our colleagues at the Bruzz International TV programme are back from their summer break. This week they meet Hussein Rassim, a 27-year-old Iraqi who came to Europe by boat and foot last year and has since found his place in Brussels. He’s now recording a CD with some local artists.
