Sampled at the O-Town throwdown. Poured almost like pinkish red wine with thin white head. The aroma is big with tart berries, plan old tartness and some sourness. The flavor start off tart berry fruitiness followed by some tartness and then sour funkiness. Nice mixture.

Bottle 2002: Poured a red with thin white head. Sour raspberry aroma. The flavor was sour light berry with a musty dry finish. I’m still trying to figure out these style lambics. Guess my palate wasn’t made for them.

As I'd hoped, does for Framboise what the same year Lou Pepe did for Kriek. In short, one of the best, if not the best raspberry beer I've had (though it costs several times as much as New Glarus, it's main rival). beautiful ruby red pour w pink head. quite the gusher (the beer level actually lowered as the head rose for several minutes after a gentle pour). wonderful full raspberry farm aroma. flavor equal measures sour and fruit. near perfect. too steep to get often, but i will revisit if i can.

thought i'd reviewed this already but.. . Pours a deep cherry purple, light foam, some light lacing .. . hay, wood, and berry in the nose .. . balsamic raspberry vinegar, wood, cherry, dark fruits, and vinegar.. . a great framboise lambic, another awesome cantillon product, and Danger is my middle name ..

750 ml corked and capped bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 5%. Made with 300 g of raspberries per liter beer. Clear signal red colour, moderate pink head. Intense aroma of raspberries (no surprise). The flavour is very sour with notes of lemons and raspberries, fairly dry and crisp.

Recently, a downtown establishment has brought in several of the Cantillon beers, including the entire Lou Pepe line (Framboise, Kriek, Gueuze)........and I've tried ALL of them. This was a nice ruby red pour, no head, and a tart aroma of raspberries. The flavour was extremely tart to start with a mild sweetness in the finish, before more tartness. A very good product.

2004(label), 2006(cork) vintage courtesy of Bu11zeye: Poured a deep reddish color lambic with a nice white color bubbly head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of raspberry is dominant with some sour notes as well as some barnyard notes and a weird cough syrup-like finish. Taste is dry with some notes of sour raspberry and some limited acidic notes which I appreciated since I usually find the Cantillon lambic a bit too acid. Full body with some great carbonation. I thought this was really good but I good have done without the weird raspberry syrup-like aftertaste.

2002 vintage cloudy reddish colour with almost no foam; robust aroma of raspberries (what a pleasure to smell real fruits in comparison to the chemical experiences offered by too many breweries nowadays !); notes of hay, chesse and vinegar; medium-bodied, low carbonation; strong beautiful and complex acidity; the finish is long, dry and very acidic with more notes of raspberries and hay - what a great lambic !
