3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Couple samples at the brewery. Pours a golden yellow with no head. Fairly still. Aroma of barnyard funk, lemons and other bitter elements. Flavor is fairly bitter, with the sour, tart and funk in there also. Basically, just adds another flavor to the mix, bitter lemon peel. Very good, as you would expect, but I prefer the older and blended versions.

3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draught at the Football Pub, Rome. Labeled as the Jonge lambik. Classic Cantillon character, sour, lots of yeast. Some acid. No carbonation really. What stands out about this beer is how mild it is, surely the least sour Cantillon I have ever had. It is still wonderful, as every Cantillon is, but this is very approachable; it reminds me of the Broucilla.
