Commercial Description:
Please note the age of the sample you are reviewing when entering your rating. While many factors determine whether you have had "Jonge" or "Oude" Lambik, a general rule of thumb is to enter 1 year-old or older lambik under "Cantillon Oude Lambik" and anything less than 6 months-old under "Cantillon Jonge Lambik".

For those between 6 and 12 months of age, you should take in to consideration the character of the lambik. Samples presenting themselves as hazy/cloudy, with some head-formation and residual sugar should be entered as "Jonge Lambik", while those that are drier, higher in clarity and with little/no head formation should be entered as "Oude Lambik". If in doubt, message JorisPPattyn.

GBBF, 2007. Not sure if this was cask or bottle. Someone just handed me a glass of it. (Thanks--whoever it was!) Copper, no head. Cinnamon, lemon, wool, mineral--very funky but such a fresh aroma! Vast tart waves, coating the mouth, puckering. But the sourness has a focus and intentionality to it that is very engaging. Leather, cinnamon, wool. Incredably refreshing.

Weekend of Spontaneous Fermentation 07. Amber of color , no head. An aroma with notes of oak and grapefruit, no sweets. A sour flavor with notes of oak and citrus, no sweets and a dry finish

Sampled at the brewery. Hazy golden and orange in colour. Nice tartness with notes of honey, citrus, wood, earth, barnyard and still very refreshing.

Weekend of Spontaneous Fermentation 07. Slightly cloudy gold. Nose is meaty honey, some bright fruit, very woody. Flavor is bitter honey, lemon, very musty & clay like. Bitter finish.

Draught. Hazy orange colour, minor head. Aroma is smooth wood. Flavour is wood,some sourness and slight notes of sweet grass. A very "smooth" lambic by Cantillon. Was one of my favourite lambics tested at the weekend of spontaneous fermentation.
