As our Aussie friends were soon to move back Down Under, we went back down to Brussels to spend a final weekend with them there. We stopped for dinner before heading to their house and came across some snow, which was an unusual sight since it was a clear fall night. Turned out that a fast food commercial was being filmed and the snow was actually soap bubbles. It was funny watching the main actor take a bite of a burger, then spit it out over and over.
The next morning, Jane took us to an open house at the
Cantillon Brewery, founded in 1900. It specializes in brewing organic lambics utilizing methods from days long gone by. We took a morning tour, so we missed seeing the beer piped into this copper tray in the attic where the yeasts in the air will naturally ferment the brew. Although I normally like Kriek, a fruity lambic, I wasn’t fond of this one, but did enjoy learning about the process.
