Score: 8 / 4 / 9 / 4 / 17 - - Draught at Arrogant Sour Festival 2018.
Deep ruby body, with a big fluffy, off-white head.
Aroma of funk, green apples, unripe pears, red grapes, wine, moderate wood, some horse blanket.
Tastes very lovely, quite similar, with more smooth red grapes.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes dry, wooden, moderate vinous, with green apples, funk, citrus, some horse blanket.
Very tasty! Funky and vinous, elegant and very smooth to drink. Greatly balanced, with a well dosed sourness and lovely barrel notes throughout. Delicious stuff, propably my favourite grape Lambic by Cantillon so far.

750ml bottle at the brewery, pours an only purple with a creamy ring of pinky head. Nose is also inky, very grapey, jammy, some stinky berry patch, you gotta dig but then you can find some horsey funk. Flavor is well balanced, red grape, some black and blueberry, a little rose wine, there's some ruby red grapefruit at the end. Thinner than their other work, soft.
