Cantillon Blåbær Lambik a lambic with bilberries added and produced for Ølbutikken in Copehagen, Denmark. It is produced in very limited quantities and is generally released sometime during the summer. It is released in both 37,5cl and 75cl bottles and is 5% ABV.
Blåbær Lambik was first released in 2005 and has been released every year since then except 2006, and 2008. Though the word blåbær translates in English to blueberry, the fruit used in this lambic is the European bilberry which is very similar to the American blueberry. The fruiting process for this lambic consists of putting fresh bilberries directly into the barrel with the lambic.

Flaska på Himmeriget, vintage 2019. Supertjusigt mörk rödlila med stabil rosavit-röd krona. Fantastiska färska blåbärstoner med massor av blåbär, blåbärsskal, tanniner, ekfat, rödvin, en oerhört snäll yoghurt-ton, snäll stallighet och funk. Gott att dricka färsk! Elegant, välbalanserad, smakrik och samtidigt subtil. Så mycket av blåbärsskal och tanniner! Så bra!

Heavy sour if still within limits. More but not much funk. Solid.

2015 at Himmeriget. 375 ml bottle. Pours a beautiful clear red with light head. Aromas of red and black berries, vinous and green oak, and sharp wheat. Sharp clean flavors follow with a light subtle funkiness. Great blueberry presence without heavy earthiness. Special.

Nice pink fizzy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly dry fruity, berry skin, sorrel, hay, dry blueberries, oak, hints of thinner. Taste is sour-ish dry, sorrel, raw rhubarb, berry skin, oak, dry blueberries, soda powder, chalk, vinegar. Medium bitterness, nice dry acidic mouthfeel. Very nice, and it's become a little better in 6 months.

Thanks CT for sharing the 2018 bottle! Poured into a taster showing deep dark blueberry with sparse pink tinged foam. The nose shows moderately intense juicy notes of blueberry and tart brett. The palate is medium bodied and well carbonated. Juicy forward blueberries with a moderate brett tartness and moderately intense acetic notes throughout followed by more blueberries on the finish.
