Bottle at Akkurat. Hazy pink with a little bit of pinkish head. Funky aroma with smooth vinous notes, raspberry, cranberry and a hint of stable. Velvet smooth vinous taste with grapes, cranberry, raspberry and some dry oaky notes. Light stable/barnyardy finish. Overall very well balanced.

Bottle at the brewery. Hazy deep red, with a small pink head. Aroma of oak, funk, grapes, black currant and cherry. The flavour is fruity sweet, and definitely also tart, but appears rather mild, balanced and drinkable compared to some other fruit Cantillons. Very nice.

Bottle shared with Thompson and brother J @ Cantillon. Nice clear dark red color, medium sized pinkish head. Aroma is barnyard, horseblanket lightly, nice fruity notes. Taste is superbly balanced fruit, fruitpeel, fruitpeel sour, vinous. A bit dry finish, soft velvety mouthfeel. Superb.
