Mar 22, 2008 bottle shared at tasting. Thanks for the chance to try this one!
No head on a yellowish gold pour. Smell is musty, band-aid like, and hoppy. Didn’t get anything I would have identified as cognac though. Taste is tart, funky and nicely hoppy. Very light carbonation with a thin body. Sour but not intensely so, and a milder, thinner flavor than expected. Interesting, but something I’m probably not ready to appreciate.

Mar 19, 2008 Bottle. High white fluffy and lasting head. Strange. Hazy amber body. Mild and fruity aroma of mainly grape fruit. Flavor is acidic but not sour, mild and round fruityness. Low carbonation. Long bitter aftertaste.

Mar 18, 2008 Bottle. A golden beer with no head. The aroma and taste is of fruits, cognac, and it´s acid, dry and light sour. Medium body with a dry acid finish.

Mar 18, 2008 Picked up at the brewery. Pours a orangey gold with virtually no head. Aroma of lemon, yeast and fruity tartness. Flavor is sour, but not overwhelming.

Mar 17, 2008 Shared at Cleveland tasting 3/15 Thanks Mike, Bottle: Pours a hazy gold with a loose white head. Aroma, funk, some grapes, lemony, sour. Flavor, funky, lemony, some grape and fruitiness comes through from the cognac barrel I guess. Some woody notes, a tart and acidic finish. Excellent beer.

Mar 16, 2008 Bottled shared at the Cleveland tasting. Poured a very cloudy golden color with a hint of an off white head that receded rather quickly. Aroma is actually much sweeter than most cantillons...most likely from the cognac barrels. A very easy drinking gueuze with a nice full bodied and softly carbonated presence. A very solid gueuze that I enjoyed a whole lot. good stuff!

Mar 14, 2008 Tasting at Ølbaren 2008.03.11 - Thanks Fonefan for sharing. It’s hazy, warm golden with a small head. The aroma is sour with loads of citrus, including a lot of lime. The flavour is sour with somewhat sharp notes of grapefruit peel, but at the same time it’s smooth and vinous with notes of grapes. Normally Cantillion is too hard core for me, but I actually like this one!
