  Challenging, but ultimately satisfying, beer. Almost zero carbonation -- this was like a flat beer, almost like sour wine. On the palate this starts a touch dilute but opens up with complex cheese, sour orange, and other funky flavors. A heavy -- too heavy in my view -- oak component. An intellectual brew.

  I drank this a few weeks ago, so no detailed note, but it was in a very good place. After opening a couple of these soon after release and being strongly underwhelmed, I realize that I was drinking them far too young. I suspect that younger Cantillon Gueuzes will improve drastically as well because of this (they taste better young than this did). This bottle was beautifully expressive, extremely sour, focused, and complex. very nice. I'll hold a couple more for as long as I can stand it.
