This article is based on a past tasting experience and was updated in June 2025.

About This Beer

Characteristics

This is a Cantillon Gueuze. A Gueuze is a lambic that blends batches of varying sourness created through spontaneous fermentation, adjusted for drinkability. There’s something romantic about leaving it all to nature.

Availability Period

Available pretty much year-round.

Where to Buy

I bought it at Mejiro Tanakaya, a liquor store that carries higher-end Belgian beers.

Beer Review

Appearance

Hazy enough that you can barely see through to the other side.

Aroma

Orthonasal Aroma

フレッシュな柑橘とシーザードレッシング。やや白ぶどう。
温度が上がると野生感。酵母っぽい。フルーティさも。

Retronasal Flavor

Tannin? And truly a hint of soy sauce? Acidity reminiscent of pineapple and white grape.

Taste

Mouthfeel

Gentle. Enters the mouth as smoothly as water. You can’t even feel the carbonation.

Body and Texture

Once on the tongue, gentle carbonation fizzes up. Simultaneously, beautiful layered acidity. The flavor has a clear direction, and it’s incredibly dense in that direction.

The Swallow

やや白ぶどうの皮っぽい酸味。重みがあるのど越し。どーんと喉を落ちていく。このため、物足りなさが全くない。
飲み込む瞬間にようやくやってくる控えめな苦みがとても心地良い。本当に控えめで、酸味を厚くするための苦み？酸味を引き立てているのがよく分かる。酸味が主役。

Aftertaste

A faint Belgian-style ethyl acetate character lingers. Refreshing citrus. The aftertaste is remarkably refreshing despite the weight on the palate.

Overall Impression

The refreshing mouthfeel and restrained carbonation contrast beautifully with the luxurious acidity at the moment of swallowing. Rich and full. It felt like an upgrade from the Songbird I had at Pigalle around winter.

Sediment

Intense harshness. A persistent bitterness uncharacteristic of lambic. Earthy. Not good at all. Definitely better to drink it separately from the main pour.
