Cantillon

The Cantillon effect describes a side effect of inflation from which only a small part of the economy often benefits, and has absolutely nothing to do with the Belgian brewery of the same name. The home of the finest Gueuze is named after the Van Roy-Cantillon family and, in addition to a brewery, is also home to the Brussels Gueuze Museum. A brewery steeped in history that regularly supplies us with the finest Belgian beer specialties and has been in operation for more than 120 years.

Belgian brewing tradition

When you open the gate at number 56 on Rue Gheude, you immediately feel like you have been transported back a century: you enter a busy oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city and find a brewery that has been the same in terms of its equipment and equipment since it was founded in 1999 1900 has hardly changed. Copper brewing pans adorn the sacred halls alongside wooden oak barrels, ancient tools and all sorts of memorabilia that are reminiscent of glorious earlier times. The forefather of the Brussels brewery was Paul Cantillon, who set up the project together with his wife Marie. Paul came from a family of brewers and continued the tradition with pride and enthusiasm. His own brewery is still in the hands of his descendants and Jean-Pierre van Roy is the fourth generation to wield the mash paddle after Paul. As one of the first breweries in Belgium, Cantillon established the use of raw materials from certified organic farming in 1999 and, in addition to brewing, the team is committed to the brewing knowledge and beer education of their compatriots and visitors.

Theory and practice in delicious harmony

At the Musée Bruxellois de la Gueuze, interested guests can learn interesting facts about Belgian beer culture and experience the brewing process live on a tour of the brewery and the storage cellars. Expert guides accompany the group through the brewery and provide exciting facts and anecdotes from the brewery's more than hundred-year history. You can watch the brewers at work and learn how beer was brewed a hundred years ago thanks to the time-honored brewing equipment. The brewery's own museum was originally founded out of emergency, but today it is one of Brussels' sights and is an integral part of the cityscape. The highlight of every brewery tour and our favorite part of this story is the beer. The tradition-conscious brewery has a wide range of the finest classics, presenting Belgian favorites such as Kriek and Gueuze . The handcrafted specialties are brewed according to old recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation and many of the beers are produced with organic ingredients.
