Craft Beer Junction bottleshare. Thanks to Gajan. Almost clear red beer, small pink head. Palate is light and fairly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Tart berry fruits, not acidic. Quite a dry finish. Pleasant.

750mL bottle, pours a crystal clear light reddish rosé with a small white head. Aroma brings out sweet red grape skins, light acidity and medium funk. Flavour is sweeter for a Cantillon lambic, with sweet red grape skins, gentle barnyard funk, and a touch of earthiness. Nice red grape skin finish. Excellent. --- Beer merged from original tick of Drogone Lambic on 16 May 2023 at 14:07 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.5.

Bottle at the brewery bar. Rather thin body, medium perceived carbonation, even if it does not bubble so much. Medium sourness, soft lacto and grapey one, with very low - unperceived acetic. Rather moderate tart tannins of the grape skins. Lots of pleasant red wine flavour, fruity, dark fruits hints. Very tasty, very good.

750ml (thx, Martin!) shared at Erik's place in Malmo. Appearance: hazy purple with white head. Aroma: a combination of red grapes, funk, barrel, some manure notes. Taste: along the same lines, quite balanced and smooth. Overall: elegant.

Poured from 750mL bottle (bottled 24 January 2022). Dark ruby red with small pink-ish white head. Nice vinous notes, light gentle funk, very enjoyable.
