Commercial Description:
Editor's Note: This is a special version of Saint Lamvinus that was bottled unblended (and uncarbonated) for Akkurat in Stockholm, Sweden. Only 200 bottles were made. There were no distinguishing marks on them. This is NOT available in the United States nor in Belgium, unless from Jean Van Roy himself. Some bottles are available in Denmark from certain Ratebeerians, otherwise only from Akkurat. Unless you specifically were told that you had unblended Lamvinus, and it was dead flat, you had regular Lamvinus.

(Bottle 75 cl) Reddish, unclear - no head. Looks almost like a red wine - if it wasn’t for the cloudiness. Extremely sour nose - just to get close to the fluid is quite an achievement because of the sharp, vinegary aroma. Surprisingly soft considering the acidity. Sour flavour, yes - but not overwhelmingly so. Very interesting. 120805

Bottled. Deep red coloured. The unblended version of Saint Lamvinus is even more vinous than the regular just like Stene wanted. Sour, fruity, dry and rather woody. It is softer and smoother due to the lack of carbonation. Very nice.

Bottled. Deep red, Acidic vinous aroma. Dry and citric with fresh character of fruity red wine, which seem stronger due to the low/non-existing carbonation. The mouthfeel is fairly clean, the acidity is Cantillon’s trademarked, and it has grape stone bitterness in the finish.

Hazy red with just a light pink rim instead of a head. Aroma is horsestabel and grapes. Taste is grapes with a good sourness and and a dry woody end. Thanks to Jacob for bringing this to Denmark and to Kim for sharing.

A hazy red beer - ofcourse with no head. The is of cherries and grapes. While the flavor is more a blend of grapes and grapefruit - with a nice sourness - and a somewhat woody end. Thanks a lot Jacob for bringing this to Denmark.

Pours unclear deep red with no head. Vinous aroma of berries and wood, rather dry. Very dry and woody in the flavor with notes of grapes and some grapefruit. Interesting and actually quite different from the ordinary Saint Lamvinus! Thanks a bunch Jacob for bringing it to Denmark!
