COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Vigneronne is a blending muscat grapes and lambic, the brewers and beer merchants produced the "druivenlambik" (grapes lambic). White grapes soaked in lambic. The fructose, which abounds in these fruits, enables us to make a beer which is more mellow than the Gueuze or the other fruit beers. The spontaneous fermentation, the ageing in the barrels for several years and the addition of grapes make it a distant cousin of certain white wines. Changed name from Druivenlambik in 1987.

2011 bottle, 05/12/2013. Pours clear, brilliant golden orange, fizzy white head fades quickly to an almost still surface. Aroma has oak, sweet white grapes, peach, honey, nice barnyard finish. Taste is sweet, tart white grapes,grapefruit juice, acidic citrus notes, a little vanilla, oaky funk. Low carbonation, but coats the mouth well. Really nice, should be drinking more of this.

Pawola22 (3074) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAY 12, 2013
750ml bottle from De Bierkoning in Amsterdam. Pours a lightly hazed, deeper golden colored body with a thin, fizzy, off-white head that dissipates quickly and leaves no lacing. Aroma is funky and musty with a nice white grape and grapefruit sourness. Slightly acidic and oaky as well. Flavor is similar. Funky, woody, and musty up front before lots of juicy citrus grapefruits and white grapes come in. A slight malty sweetness in the middle before this finishes very dry, woody, and a bit acidic before leaving a lengthy aftertaste. Light body and a soft, light, active carbonation. Overall, a really nice fruit lambic. Very dry, but pretty fruity and juicy with a nice funky must throughout. Great beer.

75cl bottle. Appearance: cloudy blonde beer, unstable head. Nose: lemon, wine, little acidity. Taste: white wine, it reminds me a lot of a sparkling champagne, very nice beer.

Gueuzerie (5) - - APR 5, 2013 does not count
Compleja. En un principio, se le nota el toque agrio, por lo que no es una cerveza para neófitos. Pero, a su vez, resulta ser muy interesante. Su sabor va evolucionando con el tiempo. También se notan toques cítricos. Hasta su aroma te lleva a tiempos pretéritos, a la granja. Como si el tiempo no hubiera pasado en la Cantillon.

SlackerMads (520) - DENMARK - MAR 30, 2013
Tap. Hazy yellow with a large quickly dimishing white head. Aroma is sweet white grapes, barnyard, horse, light sweat, light citrus. Taste is medium sweet and sour. Medium body, watery/oily texture, medium carbonation. Dry light puckering finish with white grapes and barnyard.

stoutnick (160) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - MAR 13, 2013
UPDATED: MAR 30, 2013 Peach colour. Aroma of pencil shavings (the oak aging) and funk. Taste is sour, slight fruit, and lemon citric. Definitely the least interesting Cantillon I’ve had, but still tasty.
