Congnac sweetness makes this one of the most ready to drink Cantillion ive ever had. Solid

Light, refreshing, very modest funk, a spritz of lemony tartness and a virtually clean finish.

Young gueze upfront with some funk on the backend. Not much barrel, but still pretty tasty.

A really soft gueuze with such a refreshing and drinkable profile.

A beautiful expression with notes of dried and stewed fruit, orchard hay, crisp McIntosh apples, and toasted sesame seed all cut with a very quaffable acidity and carbonation - could solo the bottle no prob. Should age gracefully

Age is going to do wonders to this. Heavy cognac right now.

Happy Zwanze Day everyone! Thanks erich r. for the bottle and hosting! Nose is musty and filled with vinous goodness. Body has accents of cognac interwoven between leathery funk and hay notes. Excited to spend the day with some awesome people!

Totalnie nie podzielam zdania poznańskiej braci piwnej. Przyjemne owoce, lekko miodowy posmaczek, a do tego wyczuwalna beczka z lekko tanicznym i mało kwaskowym finiszem. Moim zdaniem jeden z lepszych Cantillonów. 4.6 (odstało sobie 15 min w szkle)

Super mellow & young for a Lambic. Both funk & acidity are minimal. Definitely thinking the 3 year old Cognac part of the blend will develop over time.

Dziwne jak cholera, smrodliwe, lekko miodowe, wychodzi lekko cognac.

Classic, funky Cantillon nose. Drinks pretty straight down the barrel with some nice cognac barrel character. Fun tasting for a worthy cause.

Less funk forward than I expected. Good woody balance that keeps this one bright and oakey.

JVR live on Zoom in the background for a guided tasting. Really cool experience and a delicious lambic. Extra 1/4 cap for cool factor.

Virtual tasting with JVR. Saved one of the best for last. Classic Cantillon gueuze with smooth Cognac notes. Subtle oak. What a journey this has been. #50³.5

Haven’t checked a beer in for a minute, but I’m drinking this live with JVR himself on Zoom, so I gotta.

Real time guided tasting with the man himself Jean Van Roy. Light almost still beer with subtle honey notes from the cognac barrels. Very easy to drink. Have to think a couple years will give it some funk. “Bruocsella with a 50 Degrees N nose”.

Superb blend, funky house aromatics, vinous, a delight with every sip. Would give 10 mugs if I could.

Rare real time tick. Live stream with Jean Van Roy. Close to still, Beer has a mild funk, cognac is a background element that represents really well on the nose. “Bruocsella with a 50N nose” sayeth JVR.

Really like this as it starts to warm up, nice cheesy funk along with balanced barrel notes

Guided tasting with Jean Van Roy. This is great already. Soft acidity, fruity and complex for a beer so young. Clear hints of cognac in the smell and just a bit in the taste. Decanted for 30 mins. “Like a mix of GCB and 50N” (not direct quote).

Needs some time for the funk to develop. Still tasty

Young, bright, floral. This needs time to develop a more complex funk. I’m excited to revisit this in 5 years.

Not sure what's better. Whale of whales or unreleased bottles. Everyone is sure to enjoy this once it's released. The cognac gives this something that your typical one off doesn't. Happy with how this came out.
