Jun 5, 2005 Updated: Jul 8, 2005Vintage 2000: This kind of funkiness, I like much more in a gueuze than in a fruited blend. Hazy yellow, it smells of slow drying hay, leather, dust, and an overriding sourness. The taste is quite tart, citric in nature, with a touch of grainy sweetness in the finish. Not bad. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/events-detail.asp?eve Fest at Delilah’s, Chicago, IL 06/04/2005<font size=-1>

May 24, 2005 thanks to mullman for providing this at the jimmack invt...a clear golden color with a tight foamy yellow head. aroma is a sour grassy/earthy scent. flavor is light and grassy, with a strong tartness and a bit of fruit sweetness. the tail on this beer actually made my mouth pucker from the bitterness. this gathering was my first venture into the lambic genre, and i have to say, i just dont think they are my bag, baby.

May 23, 2005 05.22.05 1999 750 thanks to Mullman at jimmack04 invitational. I’m always tentative and anxious going into a lambic tasting because as much as I want to love them I really have to work at it. Light grass, mold, earth aromas. Some honey. Soft and grassy and dry in a way not unlike a saison, quite effy despite its age. This lambic is more mild and pleasant than most other Cantillons I’ve had. It’s less sour and much more drinkable than I expected. Thanks MullDude!

May 23, 2005 Pours a hazy light orange color with a very thin white head. Very good aroma of earthy yeast with fruits and some acidity. Very good flavor of earthy yeast with strong acidity and fruits. The body is light with a dusty and dry mouthfeel, the carbonation is soft. Very good but I feel that Cantillon’s regular gueuze is better.
