Apr 5, 2009 Bottle 2004 750ml. Pours a hazy bronze pale golden body with a white thin lacing. Citric and lactic acid, hints of wood and tart lemon and grapes. Tart and sour and very enjoyable.

Apr 4, 2009 Pour from the bottle gave a nice golden color with a white head. Aromas of sourness and fruit. Very tart and medium on your tongue. Flavors of oak, grapes, and yeast. Very tasty dry finish. Good beer for sure.

Apr 4, 2009 Hazy yellow color with fizzy white head. Funky flavors, leather, hay, tart apple, fruit, lemon, and hints of wood. Quite dry and sour. Not as much fruit in this one.

Mar 31, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy straw color with a small and quickly-dissipating white head. Aroma is largely sour, with slight oak notes, apple, and green grape. Taste was a shock, as it starts very sour and "funky" with brett notes, dissolving into a tart, woody finish that also has the oily slipperiness of grapes and wine. Palate is smooth, and the finish is more dry than I anticipated. I love funk, and I love Cantillon lambics - this one was a winner for me.

Mar 30, 2009 Bottle. 2007. Pours a hazy golden color with very little head. Sour aroma, with a hint of wood and green grapes. Taste was much of a suprise considering this was my first ’true’ Lambic. Starts VERY sour, then progresses into a hint of wood and white wine. Ends with a lasting sour bite. Will take more tastings to aquire a taste. But overall not bad.

Mar 20, 2009 Courtesy TheCheeseMan. Dark straw color, sparse off-white head. Sharp lactic funk, lighter grape notes, fruity background. Real sour start, then white grape, then a real sharp punch of sour. The fruit comes out a bit, but it’s mostly a show of the classic Cantillon sourness.

Mar 20, 2009 (Draught) Dark golden colored with little white head. Sweet peach in fruity and sour aroma, slight spices and sugar also present. Medium bodied, smooth palated. Flavor has same peach here, aftertaste turns to sour and carbonated with some hints of dry white wine.

Mar 13, 2009 Draft at Publican. Hazy golden pour. Slighty funky and sour aroma. Yeast, wood, and light grapes. Soft flavor, with a sharp citrus finish. Microscopic bubbles. A really well balanced and approachable lambic.
