Ungstrup (10853), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 13, 2004 [I tried this one at the open brewing day March 6th 2004, thanks to Jean van Roy and John White] The aroma is fantastic, sour from the wild fermentation yet sweet with notes of lemon and very well rounded. The color is orange and it has no head. The flavor is thin compared to the promising aroma, it is sour with notes of citrus and grapefruit. omhper (10141), Stockholm, Sweden Jul 28, 2004 Bottled (from Jacob’s collection). Hazy pale orange. Up front Cantillon acidity mingles with strong cognac aroma. Sweeter than the average Cantillon, yet fresh and acidic. After the initial punch the cognac flavour subdues to a more balanced level. Interesting, and - as alwatys with Cantillon - very, very good. Papsoe (9771), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 8, 2007 (Bottle 75 cl) Slightly hazy, amber golden with a basically absent head. Sour - very sour - Brett aroma. The body is soft and a little watery - and completely flat. Lots of Brett sourness dominating this - and some oaky touches. Not much cognac though. 090507 Oakes (6790), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Aug 11, 2004 Hazy light amber colour. Fresh, wheaty, bretty goodness. Very tart. Very musty. Pleasing underlying sweetness. Slight oak note, but I missed the cognac influence. joergen (6147), Frederiksberg, Denmark Apr 27, 2008 Bottle.
