For real?
Well, good thing I prefer Tilquin geuze then

Well now that's interesting. I guess gone are the days when I visit and not max out on their to-go offerings!

Yeah it's interesting because it's not as if access to the beers will decrease if you're in Brussels, the only real thing changing, at least for now, is the price you pay for them. Gueuze, Kriek, and Rosé have always been on the shelf in a dozen different stores within walking distance of Cantillon every time I've been. Now if that changes as well then this will have a much bigger impact.

Bought 3 bottles of St Lamvinus yesterday and today without the blink of an eye.

The thing is, that's easier for foreigners than it is for locals :/
They don't expect you to come back 2 days in a row and I don't think they register your name :s

I believed they check everyone's name who buys beer to go ? Or don't they

Does anyone know what's available these days? Vig's out?

 

[ExPimp]

codasnap52 and I will be in Belgium April 27-30 if anyone wants to meet at Cantillon or the O-Droom

 

[L3MI1]

If anyone wants to share some bottles @ cantillon on June 20th, I will be more than happy to do so. I will also be @ the new 3 fonteinen location the 21st of June looking share some bottles.

Send me a message if you will be there.

I just got through for their online sale, amazingly. I assume people on the west coast received their boxes without incident last time?

Mine arrived in Portland quickly last time!

 

[falc0n26001]

I'll be in Brussels 11 May if anyone wants to have some beer! Cantillon around 1:30, then 3 Fonteinen, then probably Moeder Lambic.

61 Euros, beg your pardon!

It was about $114 after shipping. Great deal (at least for those of us who never see Cantillon on shelf in the NYC area.)

Is onsite the same as last time?

 

[wethorseblanket]

My box came today. Super fast! I feel lucky to have got through. I doubt I'll be in the right place (scrolling Facebook) at the right time again.

 

[MikeG1]

My box just shipped. Fingers crossed.

You know their own list is relatively unreliable, right? It's really not updated very stringently...

 

[Digita7693]

As of this am, from memory:

To go: gueuze, kriek, gambrinus, iris, st gilloise

Onsite: LP F,K, and G 13 or 14, forget exact date on each, zwanze 13, st lam, vign, st lam grand cru, 50N, Carrignan, 2 yrs of gilloise?, 2007 Gueuze, GCB, errr I forget

 

[NAD1983]

You know that's the exact same availability that Digita7693 posted above, right? He was there yesterday so I think I trust him

I'm sure that they don't update each day when they run out of labeled bottles, but general availability for that time of year should be accurate.

And this morning I can only speak to what was available today, yesterday is too long ago.

Anyone know if Cantillon accepts Amex cards? Or even other spots like 3F, Tilquin, DHVL etc.?
