Description
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.

Хороший ламбик, есть умеренная кислинка от ягод, красная смородина, немного винограда, хороший баланс.

Хороший сбалансированный ламбик в потрясающем пабе Пидорс. Супер баланс и приятное сено от пива подогрела музыка из первого фолыча которую поставил бармен на пластинке. Топ.

Not much more can be said. Elegant and beautiful, still tasting in its prime. Mellow funk, low carbonation.

Entre dorada y anaranjada, turbia, de escasa espuma de baja persistencia. Clara presencia de brettanomyces en el aroma. En boca es muy seca, con perfecta efervescencia, acidez constantemente presente, notas saladas y ligeramente frutales en labios. Retrogusto aun más acido, con notas más asidradas. Compleja, interesante, aun para paladares poco habituados como el mío.

0.75 l bottle from 'Beyond Beer', bottled in April 2024. Hazy, ruby with a medium large, foamy, slowly diminishing, pinkish white head. Sweetish, sourish, rather fruity and slightly funky aroma of elderberry, honeysuckle apparently, blackberry and lemon with a touch of hay and oak. Gently sweet, medium sour, slightly bitter, rather fruity and a bit funky taste of elderberry, honeysuckle, oak, lemon, hibiscus, some leather and blackberry, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter, tart, fairly woody-dry finish. Medium body, gently astringent and moderately effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Extremely well-balanced, juicy and refreshing lambic. Perfect summer thirst-quencher, best fruit lambic I've had in a very long time!

Pici, azonnal elolvadó hab, mélyvörös szín. Savanykás, meggyes, enyhén istállós illat. Fanyar, meggyes, enyhén istállós, picit vörösboros íz. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, nem keserű. Isteni.
