Kriek Mariage Parfait (2022) Shannon

Such a treat to get this on a radno Tuesday, 🍻 to celebrating Juneteenth!! Incredible kriek. Redicukous amount of cherry, perfect amount of funk and really deep almost bitter backbone

Magic Lambic (2023) Shannon

Magic is the perfect name for this beer. It is pure MAGIC

Grenanche Blanc 2023 Shannon

Stoked to be having this again in China!

Nath Shannon

Crazy experience! Not at the canary but at the Beer and Barrel beer bar that was closed down and then at the new location. Fortunately ran into some other beer enthusiasts having the same issue, and we all made it here to have Cantillon in Shanghai!

Classic Gueuze Shannon

One more at this tiny adorable place (beer barrel / no push) checking in the cannery since they also have Cantillon. I can’t believe the Zwanze website is wrong about the location of Zwanze in Shanghai! It is not at Beer Barrel, it is at the Cannery!

Magic Lambic Shannon

Magic never ceases to amaze

Lambic Grenache Blanc (2021) Shannon

So delicious. Such balanced acidity and vineous notes

Zwanze 2024 - MMXXIV Shannon

Probably one of the most unique beers ever. Having it here at the mothership. Tastes much like a funky weedy salty oyester. Banana, iodine, amyl acetate. Volatile aroma like a spirit. Bright golden, frothy with suspended particles.

Ashanti (2023) Shannon

Pepper-classic lambic-pepper. Just an amazing creation.

Magic Lambic (2024) Shannon

More blueberry this time. Still magic

Grenanche Blanc 2023 Shannon

Amazing! Wine centric lambic.

Classic Gueuze (2010) Shannon

2010!?! What a way to celebrate 12 years of love and 6 years of marriage. I’m the luckiest! This beer is ri-dic-u-lous!!! So much funk, character, quite a bit of brightness, to go along with the tiny bubbles of carbonation. Savoring every ounce ❤️🤤 🙌💪

Grand Cru Bruocsella Brut Bxl Beerfest V.2022 Shannon

Total liquid gold. So lucky to have found this. golden body beneath just a touch of white foam. The aroma is acidic, mineralish, and funky with Brettanomyces and notes of dried straw, apple, pear, berry, white grape, and leather. Very vinous

Sang Bleu (2022) Shannon

Had to grab a few of these from Barcelona to have in Crete for the birthday celebration! Thankful to be celebrating together on this beautiful island!

Drogone Lambic (2022) Shannon

#gameofthrones Italian grapes does it’s magic

Grenache Noir 2021 Shannon

Cantillon on tap in Amsterdam! Stoked to find this after so many days of German beers. Very friendly bartender too 🍻

Sang Bleu (2022) Shannon

Pours a ruddy, deep purple. Nose is red fruit, red wine, straw. Taste tart berry up front, slow evolution to jammier, cooked fruit, with a finish very reminiscent of creme. Some sharp oak, and wet hay

Magic Lambic (2022) Shannon

The magic continues to happen in Veinna. So happy to find this in the heart of Pilsner and lager country

Racine 2022 Shannon

Herbal and floral underneath, eucalyptus, thyme, earthy dried flowers and herbs. Dried white grapes. lightly tannic, spritzy and moderately sour at first. it’s a really unique fruit expression from the grape pomace blend

Cuvée Saint-Gilloise (Champions) 2022 Shannon

After a day of visiting beautiful art and eating at Christmas markets, the last thing I expected was cantillon on tap. It’s official, I love Austria!!! 🍻 🇦🇹 🎄

Lou Pepe Gueuze (2009) Shannon

Celebrating getting promoted to Director today!!! This bottle was brewed the year I got my first (paid) position in clinical research & bottled the year a met my husband. This beer and I have both had an awesome journey since 🥰 has that token musky funk!

Magic Lambic (2022) Shannon

Tart strawberry & blueberry notes in the nose. Can totally appreciate the quality lambic at its core. tart but not overly acidic, highly vinous, and and special tasting. The ratio seems damn near perfect, where blueberry tannin balances the seedy quality

Sang Bleu (Camerise) Shannon

Disagreeing with my previous check in on this. It is f’ing phenomenal! Made with haskap (blue honeysuckle). Powerfully fruit forward, tannic and oak notes to a pleasant level, slightly jammy but finishes dry

Oude Geuze Apogee Shannon

Probably the best boon ever. lovely aroma of farmhouse kitchen, white wine vinegar and cider apples. Very tart and tangy, apricot, honey crisp apple, honey, and some citrus flavors. Some bready malt on the finish, but stays fruity and sour the whole way

Vigneronne (2020) Shannon

Like this Viognier grape version better than the muscat grapes. Buttery grapes, not unlike a chardonnay, along with jammy, sweet golden raisins but without the sugary sharpness. Mild melon, a bit of balsamic vinegar and a hat like finish

Lambic Grenache Blanc (2021) Shannon

Had to get another one before it kicked. Of everything they have at this event, this is probably my favorite ❤️

Kriek 100% Lambic Bio (2021) Shannon

It Cantillons are kicking left and right, so had to grab one more before it’s gone. I love Novare Res. So thankful they survived the pandemic and can bring these amazing beers to us from so far away 🙏🙏🙏

Nath Shannon

The rhubarb have a citrusy lime, crabapple and the spicy tang of gooseberry. Currant, red grape and an overall musty wine taste round out the fruit and introduces a light briny taste. Weathered oak, cellar-like woodsy nuttiness and a hint of cedar

Kriek 100% Lambic Shannon

Can’t resist getting this one tap. If you k ow what I’m talking about, we should be friends

Lambic Grenache Blanc (2021) Shannon

2 yr old lambic, aged on Grenache Blanc white wine grapes from the Ventajou estate vineyard in Felines-Minervois, France. Wow. Just wow. Love the fourth notes, barrel tanks, and dry finish

Lambic Vin Jaune / La Vie es Belge Shannon

Experimental small batch lambic aged on savagnin white wine grapes and aged on vin Jaune wine barrels. Sherry-like, nutty, briny and full of umami, grape notes, and a lingering wild funk film on your 👅

Oude Geuze Boon Shannon

Getting ready for tomorrow at Novare Res. The dope menu hasn’t dropped but I’m so ready to be here when they open tomorrow! Trying habanero smoked oysters. Not what I expected…. But actually quite a bit better with this qeuze

Nath (2019) Shannon

Absolutely phenomenal! The rhubarb is bright and earthy, with a bit of a cherry fruit brightness and a sour funk. Love the finish and nose. Such a treat. Thanks MF J. For the treat!

Cuvee St Gilloise (2020) Shannon

Paired with rogue blue cheese. Just perfect for a Friday evening

Gueuze 100% Lambic Bio (2018) Shannon

Can’t remember the last time I saw Cantillion on tap in Boston outside of Zwanze day. Gotta get some …

Classic Gueuze (2017) Shannon

In memory of my mom. Missing you 💘

Nath (2019) Shannon

The taste is quite nice, rhubarb doesn't take on too bitter of a dimension, the acidity is in my wheelhouse, the sourness isn't overstated. There is a light brett like additional kind of fruit feel influence despite this being only rhubarb as I understand

Sang Bleu (Camerise) Shannon

Stoked to find this back home! Missing Belgium already. Bright, effervescent, raspberry, mild cherry, bit of grape notes. Really easy drinking. Not very tart compared to other Cantillons

Magic Lambic 2021 Shannon

Pours a deep ruby. Nose of vanilla, raspberry, and minimal blueberry as it breaths, additional cantillon funk. Taste followsnice raspberry vanilla, some blueberry and nice cantillon funk. Feel is light with nice effervescence carb. Magic is true to name

Brabantiae (2018) Shannon

Token Cantillion taste, aged in port wine barrels, so has some sweetness left over. I’d like to age a bottle a few more years. Pairs very well with the De Rank XX bitter

Zwanze 2018 - Manneken Pise Shannon

Having it as a vintage as at the brewery!

CLAC! (Trois Cépages) (2019) Shannon

Soft grainy base, with raw wheat and dusty grain silo, beneath a very bright, vibrant fruit layer. This isn't deep, saturated, sweet grape, but young, fresh, and juicy. Some underlying jammy notes of red currant, blackberry, raspberry coming in and out

Poulsard Lambic Shannon

Time ran short and we had to finish this quickly, but it was good enough to remember this was my favorite of the day. Complex sweetness with rose notes, and a chalky creamy mid pallet. Hope to find this again!

Kriek 100% Lambic Bio (2013) Shannon

Incredible share. MF J. was missed. this is fucking incredible. Cinnamon, tart acidic cherries; slightly sweet, very fruit, and only a light amount of acidity; great funk, oak, and barnyard in back; clean and delightful

Grand Cru Bruocsella Brut (2015) Shannon

Wow! Every bit as awesome as I hoped. Like a Cantillion Gueuze but a champagne version. The base is the grand cru, but it doesn’t have any residual sweetness. The effervescence has its own special bitterness and a brightness. Barnyard funk and wine

Divin Lambic Shannon

Dark cherry tone, sharp acidity clarity. Barn aroma, woody with a strong fruity black cherry note. Mellow tartness, huge jammy red wine grape, tannic black cherry skins. Medium bodied, ample carb, savory and jammy at the same time. Super balanced

Drogone Lambic (2020) Shannon

Imagine dragon. A mythical wine/beer. The nose is very wine forward with a blend of raspberry and blueberry, with a light grain character. lively floral character with the deep grape character. Palate is dominated by the floral, berry:vinous note

Camerise (2021) Shannon

Lambic with honeyberries?!? Another fruit that I need to find and try. Tastes much like a blueberry 🫐 but perhaps a bit more tart (leaning towards raspberry). Draft pour at the brewery. Doesn’t get much better than this 😍

Vinsanto 2020 Shannon

Earthy, herbal, curious caper/green olives, and tannins. Beautiful grape notes with no acidity. Some stone fruits blend with the grape notes. White wine like. Has a bit of a champagne feel without being highly carbonated. Feel lucky and thankful for this

Zwanze 2020 - Brettrave Shannon

The one that got away… at least for one year. Trying it as a vintage! 🙏🤜🤛🙌 nose is pure beet, front is traditional gueuze, mid pallet is bitter & earthy, back is sweet beet, and finish is a mixture of all those things ❤️🍻🇧🇪

Classic Gueuze Shannon

Vietnamese lunch place that carries multiple Cantillions on tap. Amazing!! Paired with Foi Gras Baos

Rosé de Gambrinus Shannon

Paired with some delicious pho. The perfect Brussels lunch beer

Classic Gueuze Shannon

On tap. Still amazing. Happy to be back

Oude Geuze Boon Black Label Shannon

At 1am after having a lovely evening hanging out with a Swiss Japanese couple at our favorite beer bar in Athens… before our 5:30am taxi pickup for our flight to Belgium, cuz we couldn’t get to the bottle before then. LOVED it, must find again!

Cuvée Moeder Lambic (Framboise) Shannon

🥰🇧🇪🙏🍷

Fou’ Foune (2021) Shannon

Bright, peachy, tart, and surprisingly crushable. Going on 4 hours of sleep, but had to get a draft Cantillon because…… we’re in Brussels!!! 🇧🇪🥰🙏

Spontandoubleblueberry Shannon

So delicious. Hard to resist despite the high ABV

Oude Geuze White Vermouth Foeders Shannon

The aroma reminds of Boon for sure. Earthy, peanutty and some bitter herbal notes. mild and delicate blend of lambic. Soft, vinous white wine notes. Dry. Very subtle oak. Slightly bitter and lemon pithy on the finish. A medium level of acidity.

Oude Geuze Boon à l'Ancienne - VAT 108 Mono Blend Shannon

The elusive 108 finally captured. Funk is unpredictable; at times, it comes across more sour up front, while on other sips, the funk is more pronounced (although it's consistently moderately sour). the booze slightly more pronounced (although still quite

Moriau Oude Geuze Vieille Shannon

Quite unique for a Geuze.It retains a lot of yeast Aromas from Belgian Strong Ales, the sourness is lower and it is much hoppier than most Examples of the style

Oude Geuze Goût Américain Shannon

Tart sharp taste with wine like finish. This was developed by the brewers to appease the excessively sour American palette. Normally gueuze in Belgium is preferred to be more balanced. I still like it and @mfj can relate. Label is hilarious

Boon 4-year Old Lambiek Toer De Geuze 2019 Shannon

Perfect

Oude Geuze Boon à l'Ancienne - VAT 110 Mono Blend Shannon

Lambic Bliss. Notes: Brewed 11/16/2014, bottled 12/16/2016. Drank it in 2021. Thanks MF J. Tart and dry, think chardonnay. Aroma of tart notes with some light funky barnyard notes and some vinous notes are also perceptible

Kriek 100% Lambic Bio Shannon

Celebration beer after ordering our new car online! Can’t wait for it to be delivered in September!!!

Blå Spøgelse (2015) Shannon

Pours dark purple-hued. Aromas of huge tart/tangy/sour blueberry, blackberry some barnyard and hay. Leather, red wine vinegar, and yeast/oak earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/funky/acidic yeast, blueberries.

Classic Gueuze (2017) Shannon

A nice way to end the ski season with this and some charcuterie. This 2017 gem was perfectly aged.

Cuvée Saint-Gilloise (Champions) Shannon

Probably my favorite Cantillion after Magic lambic and Nath. Smells of light, doughy, wheaty malt and fruity esters and floral hops, with notes of tart green apple/pear, apricot and white grape, as well as a distinct citric acidity and Brett funk

Fou' Foune (2020) Shannon

Modestly hazy and apricot-colored, with as much head on it as you care to produce when pouring. Bursting with fruit, moderate tartness and a touch of sour funk. Easy to see why this is one our favorite

Rosé de Gambrinus (2020) Shannon

Sharing is caring 💕🤣 adore this beer! So much raspberry and funk!

Fou' Foune (2019) Shannon

Celebrating Zwanaze day in spirit from home. Hoping next year we’ll be able to be back to celebrating this at Novare Res and with with global sour lovers 🥰🍻 cheers to everyone from a safe distance 😉

Gueuze 100% Lambic Bio (2005) Shannon

Aging did wonders for this. Funk nose hits you with the first sip, sour front paler, fruity/tangy/cotton candy sugar mid palet, and a lingering barnyard funk in the finish. Wow 😍

Classic Gueuze Shannon

Cantillon in a box/wine bladder!?! So stoked! Paired well with prosciutto and cheese 🧀 🍻💕 nice way to celebrate changing jobs 🥳

Vigneronne (2019) Shannon

Thanks Paul and Shahin for this delicious treat. It’s great to see you guys backup and running
