3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20

3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
37.5 cL bottle, cheers Jeppe! Pours hazy to murky orange with a fully diminished white head. Classic dry Cantillon barnyard aroma with a light citric touch. Flavour is nicely balanced between fruity grapes notes and a solid acidic/citric brett dryness. Tart fruity flavour following with a solid wooden note. Nice citric bite in the finish.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
(Bottle 75 cl) Beautiful, hazy orangey golden with a surprising head which collapses rather fast though. Also a surprising fizzyness. Typical refined gueuze flavours without many traces of the Moscatel-grapes. Oh, did I forget to mention, that this is very dry and extremely sour? Well, it’s a Cantillon goddammit... 270601

4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: JUN 5, 2003 Sampled draught at Akurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Pale orange. Acidic, just like the regular gueuze, but also with a big punch of tannines and muscat grapes The grapes only add a hint of fruitiness. The draught version seem more balanced than the bottled and adds a bit of honey. Still, this is sour like pure acid, and I love it (even if my stomach does not...)
