Cantillon is one of the most remarkable Brussels attractions for any serious lover of food, drink, or craft heritage. This family-owned lambic brewery has operated without interruption since 1900 and remains one of only three traditional lambic brewers still in Brussels. Lambic is unique to the region - a wild fermentation beer brewed with local wheat and spontaneously fermented by wild airborne yeasts and bacteria, aged in oak barrels for 1–3 years. The resulting beers (gueuze, kriek, framboise) are unlike any other beers in the world.

The self-guided tour takes visitors through original 19th-century brewing equipment, barrel rooms, and blending room - all still in active daily use - ending with two pours of the current vintage. Arrive when they open on weekday mornings for the best experience. The brewery hosts two open brew days per year (October and November) that sell out immediately.
