Brasserie Cantillon
Microbrewery
in Anderlecht,
Brussels Capital Region,
Belgium 🇧🇪
Associated Venue: Brasserie Cantillon
Established in 1900
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.

75cl bottle @ Belgian Beer Geeks Autumn Gathering 2025. Misty golden orange, foamy white head. An excellent lambic with a good wild expression, nicely balanced, but getting zero apricots unfortunately.. my quest for a real fou foune continues.
