Saturday Free Beer Party

Some visitors organize a free beer event. Here's a quote from their site:
When?
Brussels, Saturday 23 February from 9pm (21h).
What, exactly?
A party held at the iMatix HotSpot, a warehouse on the wrong side of town that's been the scene of many heavy parties over the years. We invite all FOSDEM attendees to come and enjoy.
The program includes live West African music and a great lineup of DJs. Belgian beer, snacks, and other drinks, compliments of iMatix. We love free software, and we love free beer!
