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.

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.

Sep 27, 2008 [Bottle] shared by BDR. 200th rating! Pours a hazy straw gold with a moderate off white head. Aroma is fairly alcoholic, some traditional cantillon funkiness, slight sweetness, sour apples, some grape, and earthiness. Flavor is not terribly sour. Some alcohol, grapiness, woodiness, slightly herbal and earthy, I’m not terribly familiar with cognac, so I can’t comment on that aspect, but overall a fairly good beer.
