Cantillon is the only traditional lambic brewery located within the city of Brussels.  Founded in 1900, today Cantillon operates both as a brewery and as a living museum, the [[Brussels Gueuze Museum|Brussels Gueuze Museum (Musée bruxellois de la gueuze)]]. Cantillon uses 100% organic grains and hops in all of its beers.  Cantillon brews traditional lambic products, using 65% malted barley and 35% unmalted wheat.  The beers are spontaneously fermented using a large coolship in the attic of the brewery and then fermented in oak barrels. The brewery's flagship products, which are discussed further below, include: [[File:BrasserieCantillon-18.jpg|thumb|right|Wall of Gueuze at Cantillon]]
