Hunsell (398), Amsterdam, Netherlands Feb 18, 2008 Bottle @ jbrus’ place. Cloudy yellow beer with a small white head. Nose of vinegar, leather and oak. Taste is softly sour, fruity, hints of old wood, bitter and alcoholic finish, especially for a 5%. Rather mild for a Cantillon, highly drinkable.
zebracakes (1006), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 12, 2008 Shared bomber, thanks to CMUBEERMAN. 09.21.08, in Chicago. Pours gold with bubbles, thin white head. Aroma is sharp, tangy, and bitter. Flavor is woody, tangy, fruity, crisp and sour. We tasted this alongside Isabelle, and Isabelle is superior, in my opinion. Still, a great beer. djtimeless (48), Florida, USA Oct 10, 2008 Pours out cloudy gold with white head.Taste is sour funky goodness. Tart with a nice woody finish. The cognac is a nice touch. Smooth and tasty. BDR (1929), Roseville, Minnesota, USA Oct 7, 2008 A sour barnyard aroma with a vinous character amid the barnyard and yeast. Faint vinous character in both bottles I’ve had, but the cognac showed through much more in the second bottle. Incredibly sour and worthy of the Cantillon name.

Bottle: Big apple and lemon sourness aroma with some faint oak and a touch of fruit. It pours a cloudy golden-orange with a small white ring for a head. The flavor starts with sour lemons and apple. There is some sweet apple and vanilla in the background and the finish is moderately oaky. Light bodied with mild carbonation. egajdzis (3021), Terrapin, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 27, 2008 Poured a hazy, dark golden color with a small ring of white bubbles around the edges, and light lacing on the glass. Aroma of brett, citrus fruits, light cognac, leather, oak, and green apple. Taste of green apples, red grapes, vanilla oak, cognac, brett, and a sour, wild yeast finish.
