After Cantillon, we will walk to Restobières for lunch, where we will enjoy a two-course meal chosen from a menu that includes a number of beer-based dishes. After lunch, we will hop back on a train to the town of Lot, where we will visit 3 Fonteinen’s Lambik-O-Droom, the brewery’s amazing tasting room, to try some of their delicious lambics. To finish the night, your guide will take you back to Brussels Centraal, where you can either take the train back to Leuven or join us for an optional dinner at Brew Dog, where we will enjoy a tasty meal and even more great Belgian beers!
