A new floor
 |
 |
|
| Local lad, probably drinks Cantillon. | Brewery, museum and van. | |
 |
 |
|
| The bar and shop. | Where the wild yeast does its magic, nearly fully drained. | |
 |
 |
|
| And it drained into here. | Ingredients. | |
 |
 |
|
| Laying down a cellar. | The bottling line. | |
 |
 |
|
| No reason, just looks good. | See left. |
And filmed for Japanese TV
