2008 vintage from Winter Secret Santa. Pours golden orange with small white head. Aromas of musty grapes, lemon tartness, and some barnyard. Flavors of acidity, barnyard, and mustyness. Nice balanced flavor. Would like a touch more tartness but this damn good.

2008 bottle. Bright yellow with slight carbonation. Clean flavors with some lighter toe jam funk and citric. Great gueze!

2002 Vintage drank in 2012. This was a birthday gift from a good friend of mine in Seattle sometime in 2007, and put down for another 5 years - glad we waited. Upon opening you get a funky old blast of barnyard and must up the nostrils. Still lightly carbonated, enough to create a small white head above the light orangey brown color in the glass. As it hits the lips you can sense the age of the brew, calling your name out, stoked that it is about to finally be consumed. Funk, must, acid, grass, Earth and dirt...all blended with a beautiful hint of wood buried underneath...lip-smacking excellence right here folks. All this spirals down into one solid flavor that lingers on the palate for moments and moments after each sip. I could drink this every day if the opportunity arose. The true champagne of beers. An amazing, gift, thank you Matt! Definitely one of the highlights of my beer consumption career!

A celebratory beer to celebrate the vacations start, thanks me! Pours a lite golden with an artificial head created by the somewhat vigorous pour that disappears on sight. Aroma is classic gueuze with lactic acidity and a bit of barnyard. A lot less than expected, though. Taste is bone dry and softly sour, quite elegant. Mouthfeel is OK with spritzy carbonation. Flavors are once again more lactic than wild but ever so drinkable! A really classy brew!

Golden with small white head. Quite tart and lemony and pretty nice. Very drinkable gueze. Would love to try it with some age.

A more than decent gueuze.

2007 sticker bottle @ Grote Dorst. The pour’s deep goold with a small white head. The nose is grape must. Cobweb-filled attic. Some brett and regurgitated lemon sherbet. The taste is intensely tart. Plenty of tart lemon candy and mild bile. Nice pillowy brett accents and balancing yogurt. Pretty aggressive, but pleasing nonetheless. Light body, full carbonation. Overall, quite good stuff.

Bottle shared at Hunhapu day, poured a light yellow color with aromas of light lemon, some wet oak, and some barnyard funk. Flavors are the same, light tartness throughout, refreshing overall, thanks to the person who brought this and shared this amazing beer.

Una delle migliori cantillon, il blend di tre lambic differenti ne smussa gli spigoli donando rotondità e piacere nella bevuta.
