Grand Cru Bruocsella Lambic Bio (2005) Cottreau
Assorted cheeses - pickles - chutneys - jams - sourdough - miso butter Combo works perfectly. Aged bruscella is the shit! Musty, dunnage warehouse, leather, buttery

Lambic d'Aunis (2017) Cottreau
Pressed lamb leg - herby radicchio - fried potato - lamb jus Combo didn't work so great actually funnily enough. Dish was so powerful it took over the beer. Next time - lagers only! Beer was so fruity, dank, grapes come through nicely with some funk

Gueuze 100% Lambic Bio (2007) Cottreau
Fantastic geuze. One of the best and least tart older cantillon expressions I've had. Fantastic funk. Thanks for the #trainbeer Axel P.

Crispy, funky, cheesy, muscat comes through. Some slight cork coming through but bearable. This is drinking great at the moment!

Oude Geuze Boon A L'ancienne 2017-2018 Cottreau
Taiwanese fried chicken, fried tofu, garlic green beans and Asian cuke side. Works wonderfully with the geuze! Geuze is nothing special, but accompanies the food well.

Quite one note and overly sweet for my taste. Vanilla, strawberry and tannins on the nose

Spicy peppery grapes. Earthy, nice body from the lambic coming through after 4 years in the bottle. Delicious!

Cuvée Saint-Gilloise (Champions) (2017) Cottreau
This is drinking amazingly at ~5y.o. Floral, muted hop profile, typical lemon/lime cantillon profile. Balanced acidity. some funk on nose and minerality on palate. Easy to drink this 75 all by myself!
almost 3 years ago
Wow. Never would guess this is a cantillon geuze. Super mineral, super soft, sherry forward. This will be amazing to follow the aging on!Food pairing is salt cured pork w black garlic sauce + salsa Macha, roasted corn salad, Spinach Pesto pasta w pancetta

Kriek 100% Lambic Bio (2015) Cottreau
New cast iron = steak test. Turned out really well! After the 30k+ steps in the blistering heat today wanted to grab something with age and acidity. This didn't last 15 minutes in the glass!

Gueuze 100% Lambic (1994) Cottreau
Crazy good for what it is. Once it opened up it lost a bit of its charm but this was much softer and less acidity than most cantillon even a third of it'd age. Some bright lemon notes but was also a little buttery but what a crazy pop once opened!

Favorite beer from tap all weekend. So so so creamy, loads of vin jaunt all over the place, so damn drinkable. Had 5 pours or so over the weekend. What a fantastic way to serve this!

Lou Pepe Kriek (2014) Cottreau
Always fantastic, this particular year was getting to where I like it. Given a few more years and more time to sit with a bottle - this will only get better

Lambic Vieilli 5 Ans En Fût Cottreau
For what this is, this is amazing. Tons of depth, buttery- thick body, slight apple on the back end. Huge finish.

Cantillon geuze just isn't my thing. Lots of damp musty wood, cork, leather

Best white wine grape we had all weekend. Was actually taken back how good this was. Very complex and different than your standards, similar to menu pineau 19 we had on draft. No buttery fresh pressed grapes. Acidity, tannins, some stone fruit
about 3 years ago
I think they did this no favors by pairing it with the wine. The wine was great but super punchy while this was soft and creamy and on the subtler side. Would love to revisit a bottle!
about 3 years ago
Very interesting fruit. Was almost meaty with notes of mango and passion fruit. More pronounced bitterness than some other stuff we had opened at the time. For me very enjoyable

One of the best grape lambics we had on tap the whole weekend.
