Cantillon Rosé De Gambrinus

375 ml. bottle. Pink/red with a small and fast disappearing white/light red foam. The aroma is acidic with raspberry and cherry notes. The flavour is very sour, maybe the most sour Cantillon (and that is saying something), with only a touch of fruits. Medium body with a long sour finish that has a touch of raspberries. I wouls have preferred a more fruity beer, but however this is absolutely not bad.

750ml @ Coles Buffalo NY. Just not my thing. First non Lindemans lambic. Great looking brew. medium to dark pink Not quite ready apparently. Got better as i went on. tasted like bandaids, Tart, sour, way too sour.

re-rate: agree with previous assessment I thought it was OK. Lots and lots of grapefruit and lemon, a little bit of barnyard and a little bit of raspberry. Overall I thought it was too sour and not complex enough.

Very lovely aroma with a whiff of raspberries. Red-orange-pink body with a large spritzy head that collapses to a thin layer. Very soft two year old lambic shows some lactic acidity, just a hint of raspberry fruitiness, and tartness in the finish. Very spritzy, lively. A real treat, how can anyone give a fair number to this?

Sampled at the brewery in Brussels - liked this more than the gueuze. While stille being extremely sour, the raspberries gave it a little more depth and flavor. Wish it had a tad more berry flavor though . . . I can’t help but laugh when they tell you "you probably won’t like it because Coca-cola has ruined the world’s palate and everyone likes nothing but sweet sweet sweet - get ready for sour".
