Sep 25, 2006 Lemon, leather, wood, cork, bamboo, lots of manure...driving through farm country. Tart, corky, apple skin notes, hints of leather. Good gueuze, fairly approachable.

May 14, 2006 Hazy blond color; huge head, very lively; wonderful fine perlage. Classic aroma, sour, elegant, cellar smell with a hint of citrus fruits. Weak mouthfeel, the sourness is not very strong, but it’s too much astringent, and the bitterness is too high.

Jul 12, 2005 (750ml Bottle, RBSG05) Cloudy amber body with minimal head. Aroma is sour, horseblanket, some barnyard, cheese. Taste is quite sour, light sweetness, lemon. Nice yeasty barnyard in the finish. Light body with medium carbonation. No question that this is a Cantillon.

Aug 5, 2005 Bottle at GBBF
Cloudy gold lambic. Good oaky nose and the sourness in the mouth with the citric acidity is pretty intense. Best straight lambic I have had so far. Drinking this after all those heavy American IPAs is just so refreshing.

Pale yellow, hazy, not much head. Typical sour, dry Cantillon nose. Very bitter for a lambic, double amount of hops is used here. Double IPA with lambic one would say.

Apr 4, 2007 75 cl bottle. Pours a huge head. Sulphury, citric aroma. Only faintly sour, sulphury and oaky flavor. Low on carbon. lemon, honey and mandarin. Just a bit thin. Someplastic in the aftertaste. Complex geuze, not the best Cantillon can offer, but it grows on you while finishing the bottle.
