Bottle at Cantillon. Straw gold. Slim ring of white. Lovely Gewurtztraminer floral vibe. Bit of a raisin thing. Taste is light dry tart sharp and lemony. Clean with bright funk. Dry tart finish. Ace.

Bottle shared at the brewery. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a small, creamy white topping. Really bright, lightly sweet, notes of yuzu, grapefruit, zesty lemon, mild acidity. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Clean, quenching finish, moderate tartness. Outstanding.

750mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out dessert white grapes, white raisins, a touch of funk, and light tannins. Flavour has a perfumey character to the white grapes, white raisin, some perfumey floral notes, and a touch of acidity. Perfumey, white raisin finish. Good stuff but not one of my favourite of their white grape lambic varietals.

750ml shared with Ryan, Phill, and Mario (The Garden brewer, Croatia). Appearance: slightly hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma: nice grapes, a bit sharp, but in a good way, funky. Taste: same, very nice, a bit sharp, but nicely balanced. Overall: great one!
