May 21, 2008 I’ve experienced this on multiple occasions at multiple ages, and once on tap. Every taste has been fantastic, with minor raspberry notes, and a well balanced lambic running the main flavors. Mellows out beautifully after about 4 or 5 years. Yum!

Apr 24, 2008 Beautiful pinky with a vanishing soft head. Barnyardy, raspberry, bloody/metallic, citric, woody, vinylic, fruity and little cellar notes. Tartness is more than any Cantillon i’ve drank so far, but still damn good. Very dry.

Apr 22, 2008 75 cl bottle. Bottled in 2007. Pours a peachy red colour with a white (and just a hint of pink) head. Aroma is some funky barnyard notes (sweaty horse; we meet again) mixed with really nice raspberry notes. Very promising! Flavour is very tart with notes of lemon and grapefruit juice, some funky funk and a coule of subtle raspberries. The finish is dry, woody, earty and quite sour. In large quantities this gets to sour for me. But with some stinky and rich cheese or with food with a distinct sourness this is great! This is great as an apéritif as well, since the tartness is so mouthwatering. I also tried this together with some salty liquorice which actually was a great combination! (Together with the right food I would probably give this a score that was closer to 4.0 than 3.5.)
