Aug 27, 2005 Updated: Dec 12, 2005An unclear light yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma contains notes of grapefruit, and metal as well as hints of hops. The flavor is rather sweet for a Cantillon, but also grapefruit sour, and with some notes of metal in the middle, before a dry acidic and hoppy end sets in.

An unclear orange beer with an orange head. Both the flavor and the aroma is a mixture of sweetness and sourness - quite a nice balance - and on top of this the most dominant note is that of grapefruit.

Aug 21, 2005 (Bottle 75 cl) Unclear, pale golden with a surprisingly fine head - and carbonation. Very citrusy notes. Very fresh and acidic - naturally - but not over the top. 120805

Aug 25, 2005 Bottled at RBESG. Hazy golden. Citric acid nose. Fresh and lively with notes of cobwebs and hops. Typical complex, tart Cantillon beer, but more hoppy, and with a surprisingly bitter finish.

Bottled. Lively golden appearance. Fresh hoppy, citric aroma. Distinct acidity (even for a Cantillon), light sparkling mouthfeel. Lemony and juicy with quite a lot of hop chracter. I am now a great fan pf Royal Union Sint Gilloise...

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.
