Commercial Description:
In March 2005, the brewery Cantillon had bought second hands barrels in the region of Cognac. For 15 years, the wood had been impregnate with cognac. Then for 2 years, our lambic has extracted all the flavors and aromas to make a unique gueuze. The name comes from the geographic location of the brewery.

Hazy gold. Barnyard, sweet booze, brett, vinegar and wood. Flavor is sour but has some sweet characteristics. I get some of the barrel aging, vinegar, sour apples and wet earthy flavors. Damn good.

Milky, golden pour. Mineral and vinegar soaked wood aroma, lemon pith and bittersweetness; flickering acidity and brazen citrus sharpness; all fairly far from unusual, and just right.

Flavor is wooden and sweet, with the usual ripping sourness beneath; the animal qualities are a bit buried as well, but the acetic flavors are quite forward; mostly champagne vinegar and a bit of balsamic. Theres a spirit texture of sweetness in the wooden flavor that seems to calm everything somewhat, but its not obviously cognac; its general, and lets out some malt flavors; dried apples and some brownish spiciness.

Definitely a richer, warmer example than many others, and somehow cleaner as well, though not short on the desired flavors; smooth textured and bright overall. Highly likable!

Unclear golden of color with a white head. An aroma of horseback, dry and sour. A dry and sour flavor with notes of horseback.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy yellow-golden with a small white head. Aroma is sour and sweetish. Flavour is dry, sour and with brett. Dry finish, lingering sourness as well as bitterness. Okay, but a bit too sour for me. 26-09-09.

Bottle. Frothy white fair mostly deminishing head. Yellow colour. Heavy barnyard leather aroam. very sour indeed. very sour flavor. Astringent. Long finish. Oily palate. Exploding but not the best gueuze.

hazy nectarin pour with minimal white head. Beautiful tartness on the nose, white grapes, wood. Nice tartness up front, wonderful tanic woodiness, the cognaic is dying down a little bit. Leaves a great woody tanic taste on the finish.

Bottle. Thank you for sharing this one ChristianScheffel. Pours cloudy golden coloured with a small egg white head. Aromas of vinegar, stinging spice, dust, lemons and wood. Tart flavour with notes of sour lemons, wood, funk and spice. Great gueuze.
