    - Fou'Foune 2012 released today, 2000 bottles being shipped to the U.S.A.

    - Corks on 750ml bottles (all beers, not just Fou'Foune) have been improved.

    "There has been growing demand for beer intended to be kept cellared for long periods, and since the 75cl size is best suited to this purpose we decided to increase the quality of the corks for these bottles." - Brasserie Cantillon on facebook.

    Great news. Hopefully I can find a 750ml for under $50. Had to pass it up last time because I could only find it at one place and the asking price was way too high.

    I'm going to a wedding in Italy and we decided to go to Belgium first. My flight leaves tomorrow, I'm pretty excited about the serendipitous timing of this.

    I'm with you there. I gave up hope for ever getting this a while ago. Especially after I heard..first one of the bigger beer stores in the area said they hadn't gotten a bottle in over 5 years and 2 Im pretty sure their distributor pulled out of Michigan.....oh well plenty of other beer

    Since we don't have a Cantillon distributor in St. Louis currently, there's not much chance of my seeing one.

    On aging fruit lambics:

    "Indead, we recommand to drink our fruit beers fresh to enjoy the fruitiness but you can also keep a fruit beer for a while but the fruit taste will decrease probably with the time. We opened here some time ago a 35-year old Kriek and the beer was wonderfull." - Brasserie Cantillon
