Been wanting this one for a while and couldn’t wait to open it up. Shared with Ethan and Henning. Pours a hazy orange golden with a fizzy simple head that fades. Aroma is musty, lemon, basement, hay, and light grassy hops. Flavor is puckering lemon, funky cheese, and a nice citrusy dosing of aged hops. I would say this is more drinkable than the organic gueuze. Wish I had more. emacgee (1888), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA

The aroma is tart, acidic, vinous, and a little citrusy. The flavor is tart, acidic, vinous, citrusy, very tart and acidic but still more mellow than some of their other brews. Nice tart biting palate, not super carbonated. The finish is lasting and tart with a bit of a dry feel. FatPhil (3477), Espoo, Finland

Hazy gold, no head. Sour lambic aroma - dry hoppy hints too. Apricot in the taste on top of a standard Cantillon lambic backdrop. Very tasty - well balanced sharpness. Long pleasant finish. ketchepillar (480), Viña del Mar, Chile

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 13, 2008 Aroma is nicely soured, kind of skunky and funky.
Taste is very acidic, sour lemon, some rinds and mouth puckering bitter sourness. Did I mention this was sour?
This shit is pretty good.
Acidic, slightly harsh, drinks well, the hops make some presence, but only to give a touch of bitterness.
Finishes clean, somewhat sour (again).
I also get a little BO and horse. Miver (566), WillowStreet, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 1, 2008 The beer that brought in the new year. Nothing better to have in a glass at midnight , toasting with friends, getting toasted. Poured hazy golden orange with a thin white head. Aroma is of typical cantillon yeast, barnyard funky, and hints of fruits. Taste was tart, but not over the top. As "Stoutlover72" put it. It doesn’t give you a "nut-check" like other cantillons. Very drinkable cantillon product. axilla (962), New Providence, Pennsylvania, USA

Pours a hazy golden orange color with a small but dense white head. The aroma is lemongrass, basement funk, and some light fruits. Flavors are lemongrass, tart apples, pears, must, and some light hops. Not as tart as most cantillons but it was a little young. GG (1640), NorCal, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 26, 2007 Another of the Christmas Eve beers shared by the family. This beer pours out a cloudy orange hue, with a fluffy white foamy head with some nice lacing. Aroma of lemonheads, aromatic cheeses, acidic, and a touch of wood. Mouthfeel is bright and lively with the liquid dancing on your tongue. Flavors was lemons, funk, Granny Smith apples, and stomach acid. Even with the acidity, it’s really nicely balanced and doesn’t give you a nut-check like some of the other Cantillon products tend to do.
