Jun 1, 2005 Updated: Aug 23, 2005(on bottle)Abricotcolour and very apple-like with a very big barley taste; in all the acidicy and tartness. i can actually taste the grapes, they adds some smoothness and a surton tanin-feel. Fresh overall impression.

May 30, 2005 The lady and I opened this bottle while sitting out by the pool in the evening sun on a summer day. I can’t say I’ve ever seen a more appealing beer: murky slightly dark yellow with a white glowing head, the first taste I can sense the white grapes, and the aroma has that house Cantillon scent... barnyard qualities, along with a stenchy wheat and grain that is unrivaled. Flavors towards the end are more robust wheat and burlap tones, with the muscat grapes evident only slightly, which to me is a bonus in that the fruit used in no way overpowers or dominates the base lambic. Couldn’t have asked for a better lambic to fit the mood.

May 16, 2005 bottle-pours a pale/neon yellow hue with a small white head. big funk, vinegar, barnyard thing going on in the aroma-almost burns your nostrils! Some cherry notes as well. Very vineous both in aroma and in flavors with alot of sour grapes as well. interesting, but not my thing.

May 7, 2005 Pale orange colour. Reasonably funky and sharp, but there’s not much onvious contribution from then grapes. Whilst it could hardly be described as an easy beer, iIts certainly a mite more approachable and mellow (maybe even the slightest hint of sweetness?) than the usual Cantillon fare, but I’m not sure that’s a plus. Not bad, but one of Cantillons greats in my book. Bottled at the London Joet gathering, January 2005.
