About
Open the door of the 56 rue Gheude.
Cantillon ? That’s the time machine. You’ll leave the modern civilization, goodbye to the noise, goodbye to the world.
"But where are we ?", you will ask yourself.
Well, you are in a family brewery where Lambic, Gueuze, Faro and Kriek are made and where nothing has changed since 1900 when it was founded. The Van Roy-Cantillon family welcomes you and invites you to discover a fabulous world. Beers, tools and brewing process are still the same as in the beginning.
Red copper containers, barrels, some of them more than 100 years old, and walls of bottles constitute the scenery for your visit.
Maybe you’ll be lucky to see the brewing or the bottling, maybe you ’ll see how barrels are cleaned or how fruit beers are made in summer. Maybe you’ll be lucky to see the brewing or the bottling, maybe you ’ll see how barrels are cleaned or how fruit beers are made in summer.
Anyway, you’ll be able to taste a real traditional Gueuze-Lambic and if you would like to know more about the Kriek or the Framboise, just ask the brewer.

Pours unclear darker blonde. Scent is full, intense, heavy and dense cantillon, way less sharp than the regular geuze. Taste is intense, full tartness, very oak forward. Wheat def providing creamyness. Quite intense. Full brett, woody , intense finish. Nice one , perhaps a tad too sour in the balance.

Aroma: some funk and sweetness.
Taste: dull, noticeable minerally bitterness, funky, some sweetness.
Overall: good one for what it is, but I still prefer carbonated ones 😁

Hazy, dullish pale. Bubbly head. The muscat brings some sweetness to an otherwise barrelly lambic. Palate shows the same. Complex, woody lambic with a sweet muscat overlay. A bit of straw but the base is balanced, not a ton of funk. A bit of brett c and mix of bugs though.

Disig rød med lys rosa skum. Lukter bær. Syrlig og intens smak av syrlige bær. Kjenner bringebær i avslutningen.
