History
Founded by Edouard Limbourg and sons Nestor and Edgard in Anderlecht, Limbourg was a lambic blender that produced Gueuze and Kriek. Edouard Limbourg had a brother Nestor, who also was a lambic blender in Gaasbeek (Lennik). Son Edgard also ran a café in Anderlecht, named Café Au Pont de Fer - D'Ijzerbrug, located on Chaussée de Mons. The blendery closed sometime in the 1960's.
In 2014, the Cantillon Brewery purchased the vacant Limbourg building adjacent to their brewery for a planned expansion project.
