This sparkling showpiece attraction is for fans of the Brussels area's trademark gueuze and lambic beers. The De Lambiek visitors centre explains the beers' qualities and production methods, then offers a tasting of a range of local speciality brews that can prove hard to find anywhere else. Alsemberg is a 40-minute drive from Brussels. By public transport, take a train to Halle and then change to a bus for Alsemberg.
