Apr 5, 2005 Aroma is the typical funky, barnyard, wet blanket. Mellow yellow, has a small custard head. Flavour is a distinct tart fruitness. Very dry, light bodied, in spite of the difficulty to swallow this tart, acidic concoction, leaves You begging for more! My first unblended lambic, Yumm!

Oct 31, 2005 Cloudy dark golden pour with no head. Excellent aroma of tart fruits, cheese and barnyard. Sadly the flavor is not as amazing as the aroma, there is tartness, mild cheese and barnyard, the finish is sweet and tart. The body is light with a liquorous texture and very low carbonation. One of the mellower Cantillon products, damn.

Jun 1, 2007 Almost clear amber/orange with a few big bubbles that don’t really qualify as a head. Don’t know why they felt the need to cork the bottle. Aroma of grapes, lemons and extreme sourness. Vinous and dry taste. Very sour. Pretty good, but I’m not looking forward to the two or three glasses it will take to polish off the bottle.
On second thought, I’ll re-cork it. It’s not like it’ll lose carbonation.

Jul 19, 2009 Shakeyfest 09. Kinda watery which threw things off a bit. Some good funk. Pretty sour. Good "tanginess"

Jul 29, 2009 Sampled form bomber at Wurstkuche tasting. Pours dark gold with almost zero head. Aroma has a bunch of funk, mixed in with a cedar-like wood aromas, and some acidity. Palate is near flat, with a slightly "fatty" mouthfeel that moves towards a dry finish. To me, the flavors of this beer were fairly straightforward. You got a substantial amount of the oak in there, blended nicely with funky brett and acidity, perhaps even some dried fruit (pear?). Didn’t like this one as much as Cantillon Gueze or Rose, though I lack the vocabulary to express how one Cantillon sour lambic can be truly “better” than another. Maybe ‘cause they are all quality.

Jun 16, 2008 Updated: Oct 20, 2008Vintage 2003, 37.5cl. Golden, no head. Sharp sour aroma, cellar and a lot of barnyard. Tart, cellary flavor with earth and apple seeds. Sediment adds a tannic bite & a bit of grapefruit. Flat palate. In the end this felt somehow gentle, probably due to the lack of carbonation.
edit. Had this one again the other night. Ammonium, funk, cellar and sourness. A beer for the connoisseurs, medieval in a glass.
