| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 10, 2009 Dégusté avec french tickler et agaguk à l’autre oeil. bouteille de 750ml millésimé 2005 et dégusté dans un verre tulipe. Apparence orangé ambré avec léger dépôt et très peu de mousse. Arômes de rhubarbe, d’humidité, fond de cave, vinaigre balsamique et pommette verte. Rétro-olfactivement elle dégage le jus de canneberge et le pamplemousse jaune. Goût de canneberge, rhubarbe et sucre candi. Un début et une fin en bouche surprenante. Un début acide et aigre avec une finition fine et sucré toute en équilibre. Une bière différente pour son style elle est beacoup moin aigre, tous ce joue sur la finesse. wetherel (1636), Encinitas, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Feb 8, 2009 2003 750mL bottle at Cantillon tasting. Thanks Ryan! Dark yellow. Some light funk. Mellowed flavor. Sourness very light. Easy to drink. Smallest hint of carbonation. Cap moldy, but did not affect beer. Kind of like the regular Cantillon gueuze better, but still very good.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 27, 2009 From a bottle poured a hazy straw color with a small head. Nice tart citrusy flavor with a lasting finish. arrogantb (707), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 25, 2009 750ml bottle with a 2005 label on the neck, a cork that says bottled in 07 and a label on the back that says it was bottled 01/2008 so I guess this was brewed in 05 and must be about four years old. It smells a little musty and a little citrusy, mmm gueuze..Clear yellow color, still. The flavor is a little sour but so smooth it is way to easy to drink. This is a nice gueuze and I will be adding it to my list of gueuzes to cellar.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 17, 2009 2001 Bottle: Super cloudy golden orange coloured body with an amber tint and almost no head at all. Aroma of coriander seed, fresh and sour apples, fresh wheat, light hops, a bit of grass and some nice fruity smells. Very nice and fragrant! Light-bodied; Sharpish sour taste with some wheat and hops soon following, then fading to a bit of sourness and tart apple taste. Aftertaste shows sour grapes and a bit of sweet pears too. Overall, a nice gueuze - maybe a bit too mellow after five years, but still packing some very nice characteristics! I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Vienna, Virginia on 15 July 2006 on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Fin (3446), Merton, Oxfordshire, England
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 16, 2009 Bottle that I picked up at the brewery, July 2008. Pours hazy dark gold moving to light amber, white head. Aroma is sour, funky, dusty matelpiece, wet fabric. Taste is not as mouthpuckeringly sour and tart as I expected but it still has the ability to zap those tastebuds into shape a bit, its like a mini workout for the mouth. Plenty of cooked lemon rind, nice dryness, sour, bit zappy, its lovely and in respect of Cantillon this ones right up my street because it isn’t quite so full on as some of them and that I really like.
