We only use fresh fruit and, as is the case for wine, Cantillon beers can be referred to in terms of vintages. Prevailing weather conditions have a major impact on the ripeness and quality of the fruit, and this is why the taste of the brewery’s fruit-based beers will differ slightly from one year to the next.

Aus der Flasche (bottled 04.06.2025/bbe 04.06.2035) im 2025-08 getrunken. Diese rote Ale zeigt deutlich sein Kirscharoma. Der Säuregehalt ist deutlich aber gut balanciert. Ein klassisches Kriek in perfektionierter Handwerkskunst.

Pici, azonnal elolvadó hab, mélyvörös szín. Savanykás, meggyes, enyhén istállós illat. Fanyar, meggyes, enyhén istállós, picit vörösboros íz. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, nem keserű. Isteni.
LCI. Maybe needs another 6 months. Great, but the cherry is a bit on the nose. Fruity, funky, super dry.

Bottle from The Beerhive (2025). Hazy ruby body with a bright pink head. No visible carbonation. No lacing. Aroma of cherry, cranberry and barnyard funk. Flavour of sour cherry with a very tart finish. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Light fizz. Refreshing and zingy. It’s very tart and sharp; I prefer a touch more sweetness.

A small bottle, corked and capped, purchased from Beautiful Beers, for which many thanks, drunk at Dad’s place while home on holiday. Aroma: interesting: barnyard funk, a bit of cherry. Appearance: opaque claret cough medicine, head disappears in a jiffy. Palate: medium-bodied and tart, softish carbonation; finish is long and lingering, very dry. Taste: very complex and well-balanced, cherries, cider vinegar, a lick of old belt. Dry, very refined, good gear.
