Jun 9, 2009 Bottle, 2006 vintage. Thanks to BDR for sharing. Pours a cloudy yellow-orange body with thin, white head. Aroma of sour and tart fruit and funk. Flavor is more tart lemon/citrus and grapes with a hint of citrus and floral hops. Tart finish.

Jun 6, 2009 2006 Bottle @ A la Becasse. Pours gold with white head. Aroma of slight piney hops and funk. I kind of like the melding of these two seemingly contradictory aromas. Taste was typical Cantillon funkiness mixed with some lemons, along with a nice floral element that I couldn’t place. Sour finish, but not much lingering. A good change of pace!

Jun 2, 2009 The bottle looks great, the beer in the glass is okay. Starts very sourish, also bitter. Woody notes, also a bit earthy. Finish a bit milder. Good beer! Thanks to HenrikSoegaard for the bottle!

May 31, 2009 (2006 Vintage) Nice aroma with big tart notes, a bit of funk, and a touch of grape. Pours a clear amber, with a quickly fading fluffy white head. Amazingly tart flavor, with just a bit of citrus hops poking up in the finish. Very tasty, if you are a fan of sours and funk.

May 29, 2009 Bottle has a cap and a corck, mine says 6% not 5%. Pours a hazy amber with a light tan head. Aroma are hoppy and sour fruits and oak. Flavors are very sour and bitter, with young grapes and a little lemon finish. You can definitly taste the oak finish in it. I feel the wild very sour kick a bit strong, sometimes you love it sometimes you hate it.

May 28, 2009 Brewed 2006, bottled Jan 9, 2009 - bottle from La Becasse in Brussels - Pours orange with a small head that laces well. There’s big lambic yeast in the aroma with a hint of tart dark fruit in the background. It tastes strongly of wild yeast, very definitely a Cantillon. It’s tart, bitter, and very dry, and it works. Cantillon - You have been funkified!

May 27, 2009 Pours a dark sunset orange, with a low eggshell head, sparse foam puddle after it settles .. . I love the aroma, from sour white grapes, zest, vinegar, all kinds of delicious wrong flavours that are just so right!! ..Man Utd Forever!.. . quite a bitter mouth to it, with a tanglicious refreshing bite.. quite complex in the mouth lemon to sherbet to aspirin to other sour animals .. . Its got something to it, i like it, it hates me: word.. . I like everything about it except the braising bitterness in the aftertaste.. . ..

May 26, 2009 Bottle 37,5 cl and stamped 2003 Pours a clear orange with a nice golden-white head - not often seen at lambics. The nose is very fresh and sweet with light bitter undertones. There is aome abricot, orange, wet hay an soap.
The Taste is round and fine with a bitter but watery palate. I taste grape-tonic, buttery notes, sour grapes and hops. Its very drinkable and a bit more welbehaved compared to other Cantillon brews that tends to be pretty agressive. Well balanced
