Cantillon Rosé De Gambrinus

375ml bottle from Nectar in Brisbane (recommended). A orangey red beer with a small but lasting pink head. Aromas of raspberries, wild yeasts with a hint of woodiness and Turkish Delight. The flavour is wonderfully dry and tart with a hint of oranges and peppery spices coming through at the end. Very refreshing and moreish. Another winner from this excellent brewery.

Pours hazy red with a creamy off-white head. Aroma raspberry fruity and dry. Flavour is dry raspberry fruity with a light dry wooden note. Dry acidic to citric finish. Classic Cantillon dryness yet delicate fruity touch all the way through.

A tart bitch. Nose is kinda thin raspberry with ore sour than funk but still foot-funky. Looks like cherry 7Up reserva. Tastes of light funk and very tart raspberry with a finish that lacks wood but not mustard/unripe berry.

orange, red, tan foam, full body, average carbonation, long finish, medium bitterness, medium sourness, excellent complex beer

Aroma of rassberries and apples. The apperance is clear red (dispite if you stear up the fermentation in the bottom) with a tiny head. The flavour souer with hints of rassberries. A bit bitter also. Not as strong rassberry taste as i had expected. I’ve tried both old and new bottles and the biggest differance is that the older bottles are a lot more souer and has a weaker taste of rassberries and a less red colour. The rassbery taste is not very strong even in the new bottles.

2004 Bottle. A red orange pour. No head but vivid carbonation. Funky aroma. This was expectantly mouth puckering, plus raspberry and citrus.

Pours a rosy pink with very active carbonation, no head. Funky/sweet aroma. Smells like it’s going to be pretty sour. Dry mouthfeel but not as sour as I expected. Tastes of tart citrus with a pleasantly sweet fruit finish. This was my first Cantillon and it wasn’t a bad one to start off on. Solid lambic
