Apr 18, 2008 Bottled. Pours out in a hazy pale orange colour with a small white creamy foam. Fresh acidic of lemon-peels, grapefruit, wet wood, tar yellow fruit and green grapes. Medium-bodied with fresh acidic and slightly woody notes of grapefruit, white grapes, lemon and old hay. Long sour finish of of grapefruit, lemon-peels and wood. Fantastic.

Apr 9, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Jeppe (huge thanks!). Pours hazy yellow/orange with slight white head. Aroma is predominantly citrus with touches of tartness. Taste is sour lemons with some pepper and barnyard in there as well. I couldn’t really sense any cognac or other boozy, sweet alcohol notes in here. Lively palate with plenty of acidity. Finishes somewhat dry.

Cloudy yellow orange with no head. Sour funky smell. Flavor is tart and sour and seemingly not very balanced. Low carbonation and thin and waty. Seems a bit underdeveloped.

Apr 7, 2008 Big thanks to MaxxDaddy. Poured a hazy gold color with a small white head. The aroma was yeasty, funky and tart. Just a hint of liquor that I take to be cognac. The flavor is tart and mildly acidic. Flavors of leather and yeasty funk. Dry Bretty bitterness on the finish. Light body.

Apr 7, 2008 Bottle many thanks to Joeinuncle for this beer, cheers! Pours a light amber colour but when I moved it could also have been sunflower yellow albeit with some haziness. Initially this reminded me a lot of the Boon Mariage Parfait as it was a little softer and less acidic than many of it’s Cantillon stablemates. There was a lovely soft lemony quality to this and the brandy certainly makes it’s mark though not overly so. I loved this beer it finishes with a magnificent sweet and sour citrus flush with some notable oakiness hanging on the peripheries, great beer.

Apr 5, 2008 Bottle shared by MaxxDaddy. Awesome! Hazy orange pour. Muggy, sweaty, horseblanket aroma, perhaps a touch of cognac, corn, brandy. Flavor is clammy, big sour, tart, acidic, low pH and a bit of brandy. A very tasty beer, the brandy puts this a bit off from the rest, but the acidity and complexity is quite nice.
