Glass at the brewery. Poured pale, bit of foam. Still usual Cantillon autumn funk aroma. Taste for this one was sweeter and still feeling light. Sourness there but not too pronounced, more going on in the funk department.

Glass @ the brewery, from a jug (presumably straight from a barrel). Copper color, hazy. No head. Aroma’s: sourish, funky. Retronasal it’s sour, yoghurt/lactic, some funk and wood. Flavor is moderate sweet, moderate sour. Light bodied. Finishes slightly dry, with some grain and a hint of bitterness. I liked it.

From Cask at Chez Moeder Lambic Saint-Gilles. Light hazy dark orange color with small bubbly head that quickly disappears. Aroma is malty, light fruity, apples, caramel, sugar, medicine. Sweet taste like aroma. Light oily body with flat carbonation.

Cantillon Faro 5% at Moeder Lambic pours an orange brown with a foamy beige head. Musty fruity wine and sweetness in the nose. Tart but sweet with some acidity and sourness. Wonderful. Best Faro I’ve ever had, then again this is also the only authentic one I’ve had.

(On cask at Moeder Lambic Fontainas, July 24 2015) Pours very murky burnt orange with bubbly lingering white cask head. Aroma has a real sweet undercurrent of caramel and a bit of dates and figs, musty with light Brett, odd overtone of a chlorine pool building. Flavour is sweet candy sugar, tart acidity and a bit of sourness underneath, kind of fruity with fig, orange and a little lemon. Bit of a soft apple cider character going on. Bretty funk is present if not super strong, as is the wood - leather and light barnyard. Medium cask mouthfeel with no carb. Aftertaste is tart and a little astringent. Faro is probably not my style but in fairness this is a pretty good brew and if I weren’t surrounded by unsweetened lambics I’m sure I’d be happy to drink another.

Cask au Moeder Fontainas. Couleur orangée trouble, mousse beige aérienne. Arôme boisé, levure sauvage, fruits mûrs. Goût boisé, acidité faible, un peu sucré, amertume légère en fin de bouche. Absence de carbonatation, corps moyen-faible.

Cask at Moeder Lambic, 5th March 15. Fairly cloudy, aroma is sweet funk, the taste is sour, tempered down and this drinks easily, sour farmyard notes, not overly astringent. Nice

On tap at Moeder Lambic. Dark golden color with white head. Aroma is sweet, balsamico, a bit of subtle funk. Taste is fruity-sweet, not really sour, the Lambiv character gets lost. Not very complex but this is a lovely Faro!
