| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 23, 2005 extrememly pungent with a bitter almost alcohol like aroma. pale golden/yellow color with no head and small amounts of lacing. Extremely sour and has a shocking bite in the flavor. I enjoyed this, but there are other lambic’s that i enjoy more. jollyraider (252), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/20 | Aug 23, 2005 My first real lambic (this is hardly a fruit lambic). Really unpleasant beer. Aroma is bacon, horseblanket, and must. Mouthpuckeringly sour, which is cool with me, but ridiculously musty. I don’t like my beers tasting like pork products. Really gross.

| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/20 | Aug 20, 2005 I had this brew at Dr. BIll’s 12 Hour Beer extravaganza in Anaheim, CA on August 20, 2005. Thanks, Dr. Bill.
This beer is a study in sourness, and not in a good way. I simply did not enjoy it. Sigmund (2275), Hafrsfjord, Norway
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 20, 2005 Bottle, at Den Tatoverede Enke, Copenhagen. Incredibly intense farmhouse aroma combined with an equally intense sour fruitiness. Intensely sour gueuze flavour, lemony as hell. Funky and lemony aftertaste.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 16, 2005 Marcello’s Wine Market, Baton Rouge, La. - 1 pt 9.4 oz bottle. Pours a murky light orange with a quickly dissipating white head. Sweaty aroma, perhaps this is "horse blanket" not sure - but it does have a barnyard quality to it - odd - but not unpleasant. Flavor sets a new standard for sour. 10 out of 10 on the pucker scale. Some sour grape notes in there. Very earthy and unpolished. Reminds one of drinking grapefruit juice after brushing your teeth. Which is nice in a lambic - if you are expecting it. Dry mouthfeel, but the finish is just a bit off - slighlty sulphuric. TBone (6741), Pori, Finland

Hazy yellow, no head. Sour, leather aroma. Sour, fruity with grape flavor. Some notes of oak and earth. Delicious Cantillon. ratman197 (3187), Arvada, Colorado, USA

Aromas of funky, sour and acidic with a hint of grapes.Mouthfeel is very crisp. Flavor was tart and sour [of course] with some vinous notes, and some grape showing up in the finish.
