From a 750mL Bottle. Pours a transparent color of honey, topped with a thin head of wispy off-white.
Moderately acidic nose, bringing out notes of mild vinegar, white grape skins, peach fruits, and hints of
grapefruit. Beneath the fruit and brighter acid lies some funky oak dryness, peppery spice, and mild aged cheese.
Light bodied, lightly carbonated mouthfeel with a bold acidity. Plenty sour, along with some more cheesy funk
and peppery spice. A bright, fruity acidity dominates the flavor before leaving behind an exceptionally long, dry
finish. Good, but not nearly as complex or deep as some of the other Cantillon goodies.

Body is medium light and juicy with tiny carb. Taste is sour lemon up front with cheese, maybe gouda, cranberry, apricot and cherry skins.

Jul 3, 2008 75 cL bottle, brewed in 2005. Pours hazy orange and with a white, semi-lasting - slowly diminishing with a nice lacework left. Aroma is mild orange fruit and nicely blended with a dry wood and brett-citric aroma, dry horseblanket too. Dry wooden initial flavour. Hops seem to completely gone. Shows a nice citric flavour following this. Mild sulphorish note before the finish. Smooth and balanced wood and delicate fruit flavour into the finish. Seems to have a bit of bitterness into the far finish.
