Gueuzerie Tilquin is the first new lambic blendery to open its doors in nearly 15 years. After beginning to ~~compile~~ lambic throughout 2009, owner Pierre Tilquin - who holds a PhD in statistics and genetics - opened his blendery to the public for the first time on the weekend of May 28th, 2011, introducing two new lambic blends, [[Oude Gueuze Tilquin à L'Ancienne]] and [[Gueuze Tilquin (Draught Version)]].

Gueuzerie Tilquin is the first new lambic blendery to open its doors in nearly 15 years.

Tilquin produces blends of one, two, and three-year-old lambics with wort acquired from [[Brouwerij_Boon|Boon]], [[Brouwerij_Lindemans|Lindemans]], [[Brouwerij_Girardin|Girardin]], and [[Brasserie_Cantillon|Cantillon]] for the Oude Gueuze Tilquin à L'Ancienne.<ref name=BB&T-TIlquin> [http://belgianbeerspecialist.blogspot.com/2011/05/gueuzerie-tilquin.html Belgian Beer and Travel Blog - Gueuzerie Tilquin]</ref> While the first 2010-2011 labeled release of Oude Gueuze was reportedly a blend of just one and two-year-old lambics, all subsequent batches have been blends of one, two, and three-year-old lambics.
