BuckeyeBoy (1645), Boise, Idaho, USA Jun 3, 2009 2008 vintage bottle Pours out a crisp ruby topped with a small pink head. Aroma of sourness some berries and a little wood. Tast was more of the raspberries and tartness. A tasty one. Ibrew2or3 (2714), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA May 31, 2009 2004 vintage pours copper with gold edges and tiny white head. The aroma is noticed from feet away as I pour my glass with assertive notes of berries. A closer inspection yields more sweet notes mixing with funkiness – nearing barnyard, hay and more berry sweetness. Nice aroma with plenty of depth and things going on. The taste starts tart and acidic then notes of berry surface. It evens out into the finish with the addition of modest funk and wet bails of hay. I thought I heard this doesn’t age well. It seems to me to be good and possibly getting better. eManu (172), Brussels, Belgium May 30, 2009 First the wonderfull aromas are very strong when the bottle got opened. Pours a wonderfull bright red color and slightly hazy with a light pink head. Aromas are fruity, floral and hoppy. The flavors are sour fruits, with mostly rasberry and hops, not sweet but sour bitterness. Very easy to drink and very refreshing, pleasent. Really enjoyed it. hallinghansen (263), Odense SV, Denmark May 28, 2009 Bottle shared by Anker. Hazy orange body, no head. Aroma is sour, dust and som kind of berries. Flavor sour, citrus. A bit flat. not my favorite from Cantillon. ChristianScheffel (4431), Odense, Denmark May 27, 2009 Cloudy orange with a small pink head. Juicy aroma of raspberry with barnyard cantillon funk. Extremely sour berry flavour with wood and leather notes. BeerGestapo (725), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA May 25, 2009 Brewed in Belgium...... Pours a nice ruby color with a foamy pink dissipating head. Aroma of raspberries, funk, earth and cheerios. The taste is of baby funk, raspberries and some major sourness !! The mouthfeel is on the thin side yet it’s foamy on the palate and finishes with some dryness. Overall, I am extremely pleased with lambic from Cantillon. afireinside96 (807), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA May 25, 2009 750ml bottle shared by BeerGestapo, a huge thanks for sharing this tasty treat. Pours a brilliant ruby red with a massive pink head. Smells tart with notes of funk, berry, and cereal. The flavor is tart and loaded with raspberries, funk, and wood. Drying effect all over the palate. Excellent. djtimeless (170), Florida, USA May 24, 2009 Pours out redish pink with light pink bubbles. Smells of funky raspberries. Taste is tart and fruity. Lots of acid and sour flavors with some yeasty funk. Crisp and refreshing. Another great brew from Cantillon.
