Description
Cantillon Druivenlambik is a 2 year lambic with muscat grapes and is the predecessor to Cantillon Vigneronne. There were two batches made. The first was served still and bottled in unlabeled white wine bottles. [1].
The second batch was carbonated and served in champagne style bottles. It was brewed in 1985 with Muscat grapes added in 1987. This batch was brewed and labeled for the Les Neuf Nations de Bruxelles (Nine Nations of Brussels) organization.
Unsubstantiated Stories
In 1994, Kulminator had this listed on their menu as "Der Zeven Naties (Cantillon Druivenbier)" which appears to be a typo. We cannot find any other references to the Seven Nations. The price for this beer was listed as 370 Belgian Francs, or slightly under $11.00 USD for a 75cl in June of 1994.[2]
