In Brussels, a century-old beer institution produces its beverages using a traditional recipe. This limited production of "Gueuze" beer generates interest that extends well beyond Belgium's borders. The Cantillon Brewery has established itself in the "lambic" market, which is known for its unique sour beers. These beers are created through open-air fermentation, followed by a maturation period of several months or even years in wooden barrels.

00:00We have more than 100 types of yeast and bacteria that will be sown here.
00:29And that's what makes a beer excessively complex, a beer that will age in wooden vats and that is a little bit, we speak of lambic as being the missing link between the world of wine and the world of beer, but indeed sometimes we get lost a little.
00:59I'm going to taste it. It's very interesting, it's superb. It tastes a little bit like tannic, but fruity. It's very, very interesting. You can taste the time, the patience of the brewery. It really is a superb beer.
01:29Thank you very much.
