The standard with cantillon. This is worth trying just for the nose. It explodes out of the glass. Perfume, raspberries, cherries, cream, insane. Palate coats every taste buds with fruit, sour lemonheads, just an crazy amount of raspberry and cherry flavor. Also some forest. Unbelievable. — 3 years ago
Happy belated Zwanze Day! Celebrating with this 2017 bottling of Cantillon’s Classic Gueuze. Over the years, I have drifted to be a little more fond of 3 Fonteinen but I’m really splitting hairs. This is world class.
Popped and poured; crushed in 30min after doing the first yard work of 2024 and getting the hops trained to the trellis. The gueuze pours a brilliant golden color with a persistent head. On the nose, mostly tasty stone fruits: apricots, peach, kumquat, horse blanket, stony minerals. On the palate, the gueuze is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and refreshing. Drink now. — 11 days ago

Unbelievable. First time. So complex, so funky, so smooth, so fruity, it’s almost chewable. Totally meets expectations. One of the best beers in the world. As it warms and evolves, the amount of fruit is bonkers. Berries, plums, apples, grapes, juniper. Wow!!! Bottled 12/06/21 — 8 months ago
Drank after a Boon Geueze (which I enjoyed) and it was far better, more refined and delectable. — 4 years ago

An odd one for sure this year. Aged in barrel on sea lettuce, bottled, and then aged further underwater. Brine, iodine, and a strawberry like fruitiness — 9 days ago
