Public Brewing Session @ Cantillon
13 Nov 2015 - 13 Nov 2015
From 6:30 in the morning until 5 at night, the master brewer, his family, and his friends invite you to experience the different steps of the traditional method of brewing a Lambic and Gueuze beer.
And to really understand this entirely unique process, guided visited are organized every half hour from 7 am on. Early risers (really early-risers) will be rewarded for their eagerness: croissants and coffee will be available until 8:30 am!
Get ready to celebrate Brussels folklore and culture at the brewery all day long!
