Nov 28, 2007 Bottle. A slight orange and musty pear fruitiness on the nose quickly fades into lemon zest tartness and the standard Cantillon funk. Pours cloudy peach with virtually no head. Flavor has some zesty pineapple at first with some mild funk notes chiming in later. More delicate and not as acidic as other Cantillons. Creamy on the tongue with a lot less bracing acidity and high carbonation than the normal house style. A most unique Cantillon.

Sep 9, 2007 Garrafa. Coloração vermelha clara, turva, com uma espuma bege de bolhas grandes, nem consistente, nem persistente. Cítrica, ácida, salgada, azeda e seca. Bom aroma, lembrando champagne. Trata-se de uma cerveja ímpar, que você pode amar ou odiar. Para mim, ela é apenas interessante.

Sep 3, 2007 Updated: Jul 22, 2009listed as "Dernere Cuvee du Van ’89" at the bier circus, brussels. pours slightly hazed golden white head. nose is funky, lemony, and anti-septic. flavor is very dry, and a bit plan for cantillon, some oak, horse blanket, lemon, and slightly medicinal. mouth feel is fizzy and acidic. yes it’s crisp and refreshing but it’s bland and harsh. not one of cantillon’s better moments. I really think this beer is not Cuvee des Champions because it doesn’t taste anyting like it and the bottle i had was brewed for bier circus. i’ll have to investigate this. 2.8.
Late June 09, 750ml bottle dated 1/08, pours hazy gold white head. nose of vanilla, oak, funk, white winey. flavors of vinegar, oaky, floral, phenolic, and very dry acidic finish. 3.8.

Aug 30, 2007 Bottle, RBESG Grand Tasting 07. Hazy golden, thin white head. Grapefruity citrus gueuze. Mouth is quite sharp citrus with some straw, sourness then kicks in. Finishes quite smooth, but with that grating hop on the way down, just to cheer you up. Excellent
