Tilquin (or Gueuzerie Tilquin) is a Belgian lambic beer blendery based in Bierghes, Brussels, founded in 2009 by Pierre Tilquin, a bioengineer and holder of a PhD in statistical genetics. Tilquin is the only lambic blendery in the mainly French-speaking, southern region of Wallonia. In addition, Tilquin is the only blendery that is allowed to blend one, two, and three-year-old lambics with wort acquired from Boon, Lindemans, Girardin and Cantillon breweries.

Freshly brewed worts are purchased from different producers in the region (Payottenland and Brussels) and pumped in oak barrels for fermentation and ripening for 1, 2 or 3 years. The lambics are then blended, bottled and refermented for at least 6 months.

Gueuzerie Tilquin is a member of the High Council for Artisanal Lambic beers (HORAL) since 2012.
