Mar 23, 2009 750ml. 2001 vintage. Served into Hoegaarden glass. Pour is murky amber/orange with small white head. Aromas of vinegar, sour tart fruit, and some oak. Flavor is straight up sour! This one makes your mouth pucker like no other. Very smooth and tart. Lambic? no i think this one is a Sour for sure. Great job Cantillon!

Mar 23, 2009 2006 Bottle bought in Maine. Definitely more lambic than fruit in this bottle. Tough to tell that it is actually a framboise. Very funky, sour and tart. Nice overall though.

Mar 16, 2009 2007 Bottle. Thin pinkish red body with a thin fizzy white head. Aroma is predominantly oak, wood, and funk, then some soft fresh raspberry flesh. Taste is fantastic, lambic funk, horseblanket, vinegar acidity, then the raspberries add just a touch of fruit.

Mar 4, 2009 Bottle at Novare Res.
Pours a nice hazy red with a white foamy head. Smells of raspberries and hints of sour fruits. Flavor is dominated by soured fruit flavor, there’s a sweet/sour and acidic bite in the finish. This actually was quite simple for a lambic, it’s got that yogurt/cheese kind of flavor that all great lambics have, but this is suble. I liked this, but didnt love it.

Feb 25, 2009 Bottle from Charleston Beer Exchange. Pours a hazy red, with a nice comfy white head that has hints of red. Smells funky, rasberrys, maybe strawberries. Good so far. Medium mouthfeel, nice carbonation and definitely full of rasberries and even makes ya pucker. Very solid brew, lookin forward to more Cantillon.

Feb 24, 2009 12 oz bottle 2005 edition from College Liquors in Grand Junction, CO I think. Pours a clear coppery rust color with a medium white head that quickly dies. The aroma is sour, some flowery notes and light fruit. The flavor has a funky sour quality to it that is mostly perceived in the nose not the tongue, like gasoline. There is definitely a fruity-tart raspberry here and some light flowery flavors. Very light overall, not a huge acidic brew, and nice overall.

Feb 16, 2009 Bright ruby color and cloudy. Taste is tart and fruity. Taste is quite tart as well with that un-ripened raspberry flavor. Acidic and dry.
