4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20Fresher vintage (2010 or ’11) rated from notes in fall 2011. Pours raspberry red with fluffy clouded white heading. Smell is sweet wine grapes and raspberries. Taste is much more mild than typical aged Cantillon (fruit or otherwise). Very enjoyable tart finish that’s not too acidic. Incredibly unique and love how fruit forward the fresh vintages are.
5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
Pours fuchsia with a fast fading pink head. Smells exceptionally vinous, clearly like merlot. Taste is sour and fruity, without a doubt sour grapes. Medium-bodied with an astringent texture and prickly mouth-carbonation, Cantillon Saint Lamvinus finishes with a soft tartness.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle 750ml.
Pours clear red/pink with almost no head (very low pink). Aroma is of sourness, grapes, fruits. Taste is sour, fruits, grapes. Palate: Ligth body. Overall: Very interesting grapes. Reminiscent of a clear young table wine. As the sourness feeling fade out, sips besome more and more interesting (imo). Not quite as complex as I would have expected. Very easily drinkable. A somewhat unique beer. I was surprised I did’nt get any barnyard/funk, maybe hidden by the grapes.

Clear deep pink, with a light pink head. Aroma of fresh grapes, red berries, orange peel and some barnyard funk. Taste is tart to mellow tart, with a fruity, grape/berry aftertaste. Prickly mouthfeel due to the rather feisty carbonation. Marvellous beer.

3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
2012 version that I got at the brewery. Poured a hazy red body with a pinkish head. Light smooth aroma, wine, some malt maybe, sweetish, and some butter. Hm. Mild fruity taste, slightly dusty, somewhat sweetish, a bit funky, peppery, very light acidity/bitterness. More or less balanced and very pleasant, though it might not be my favorite Cantillon, it’s yet another great beer from the brewery.
