Commercial Description:
Please note the age of the sample you are reviewing when entering your rating. While many factors determine whether you have had "Jonge" or "Oude" Lambik, a general rule of thumb is to enter 1 year-old or older lambik under "Cantillon Oude Lambik" and anything less than 6 months-old under "Cantillon Jonge Lambik".

For those between 6 and 12 months of age, you should take in to consideration the character of the lambik. Samples presenting themselves as hazy/cloudy, with some head-formation and residual sugar should be entered as "Jonge Lambik", while those that are drier, higher in clarity and with little/no head formation should be entered as "Oude Lambik". If in doubt, message JorisPPattyn.

Tap @ Moeder Lambic (2 years old according to the bartender). Pours hazy bright orange with a ring of bubbles. Aroma of acetic acid and apple juice. Taste is slightly tart with more acetic acid and apple juice flavors. Finishes sour. Similar to the Girardin, though not as yeasty and a bit more bitter in the finish.

From a jug at the brewery, batch from Winter 2007/2008 sampled in October 2008. Pours orange, almost clear with almost no carbonation and no head. Malty and spiced aroma. Flat and light citric initial flavoured. Mild bitter and spiced too, didn’t have any sweetness to it. I dont really understand the hype for this unfinished product.

Cask, BSF at the 2008 GBBF. Pale copper, no head, but pretty just the same. Salty preserved lemon aroma, apricot pits. Lemon and dry lumberyard flavor. Delicate, soft acidity. Far softer, more balanced and drinkable than the Canitillon gueze. Really nice.

Cask at GBBF with in the face with the leg of a barstool tasting. Alround rating: Alround awsomeness, i was in a dilema over between this and the guirardain lambic. However the aciditidy iof cantillon stopped it from being yee haa awsome. Id love the both at any one time. Outstanding. A pleasure to have been in its presence.

18 months old lambiek, draught at GBBF 08. Hazy golden with a few bubbles alongside the glass.Complex vinous aromas with lemons, a hint of wood and grapefruit. Mouthpuckering and uncompromising, lemons in the lead, dry. Relatively light-bodied. One of a kind.

Draught. Golden with white head. Floral and nice but doesn’t stand out. For a Geuze I prefer Boon Oude Geuze Mariage Parfait.
