Bottle thanks to Casey. Pours a hazy gold with small white head that lasts. The aroma is strong funk, oak, yeast, apple skin. Thin body, funky, oak, tart apple, light dry finish, very nice.

750ml bottle, thanks martjoobolut. Nice lightly cloudy orange pour, some foam at first but does not stay long. Nose is quite acidic, tart and has good barnyard thing going on. Apples, grapes, and light manure. Taste is tart, has acidity, light apple vinegar and fruity overall barnyard feel. Tangy and has good tannins, no real sweetness remaining, light bitter linger in the finish. Cantillon at its best.

Bottle (from BXLbeerfest 2018 pack). Pours amber. Aroma and flavor are sour, funky, fruity, musty, cellar, citrus, some pineapple, slight bitterness. Finish has nice bitter tingle, it is not watery like many other sours, even geuzes. Overall: great, really nice surprise!

750ml bottle, thanks martjoobolut! Tart, sourish and funky with some farmyard, yeast and earthy notes, hints of pear and vinegar. Dry and balanced gueuze.

Bottle at a tasting. Moderately fruity, not sweet though, moderately tart as well, moderate sourness. Rather acetic in the sour character, not overwhelmingly though. Very thin, rather flat too. Tasy, okay, but not at its best. Very recent 2018 bottle.

Tap at Akkurat, Stockholm. Well it's always special to have a Cantillon but this one doesn't wow me. I have lots of respect for them but a bit of a rough ending and Watery.
