Remarkably (given that I have been a frequent visitor to Brussels with work for twenty years, sometimes on a weekly basis) this is my first ever visit here. It is crowded and there are queues for tours and queues at the bar. My time is short, so I don’t really do the place justice.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cantillon - Kriek | 5.00 | | Addition of cherries over a long maturation process rounds off all the roughness of the Lambic. Dry, with sourness rather than sweetness; all the sugar in the cherries being converted to alcohol and no additional sugar or juice added. |
| Cantillon - Lambic | 5.00 | | 15 month-aged, un-blended Lambic straight from the barrel. Amber-coloured and clear. Very dry and a little sour and a bit woody. |

14:30 Quick visit between arriving at Brussels Midi and getting a train to Utrecht. Very busy with mainly American tourists.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cantillon - Cuvee Saint-Gilloise | 5.00 | | Dry hopped with Hallertau |
| Cantillon - Mamouche | 5.00 | | Elderflower. Superb. |
| Cantillon - Zwanne 2013 | 5.00 | | Yearly bottled beer with a changing recipe. This one is a beer of beer and lambic. |
| Cantillon - Fou'Foune | 5.00 | | Apricot. Normally stunning but seemed lacking. May have been overshadowed by the preceding elderflower gueuze. |

14:15 Visit with the CAMRA Members Investments Club. Very informative tour plus samples of four beers. Had a new bottled beer before the tour.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cantillon - 50N - 5E | 5.00 | | A gueuze made from 2 year old Lambic beer aged in Cognac barrels. |
| Cantillon - Lambic | 5.00 | | One year old Lambic. |
| Cantillon - Gueuze | 5.00 | | Their standard gueuze. If standard is the right word for such an interesting beer. |
| Cantillon - Kriek | 5.00 | | Full of sour cherry taste. |
| Cantillon - Rose de Gambrinus | 5.00 | | Raspberry lambic. |
