On tap At Moder Lambic. Cloudy yellow pour with a white head. Mild sour aromas. Really sweet, almost desert wine or sugary sweet, with mild sour backbeats. Some malts and grains in the distance. Average body and mouthfeel.

Old rating from phone notes @ the brewery. Pours clear dark golden with a medium frothy white head. Aromas of brett, tannins, overripe red apples, oranges. Taste has sweet caramel, light bretty funk, some vinegary acidity, overripe apples, oranges. Actually quite tasty for a style I'm usually note a big fan of.

Cask at Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Brown orange hazy amber colour with massive beige bubbly head. Aroma is sugar sweetness with a bit of funk. Quite grainy and some wood. Taste is sweet and vinous, maybe even a touch of creaminess at times. Bit appley too and just a hint of citrus sourness. --- Beer merged from original tick of Faro on 09 Sep 2019 at 16:06 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 8.

a bit sweet for my taste, but well balanced because of the fruitiness (apple)and slight sourness. Some oak in the finish. Tasted in the brewery. April 2010: tasted @ Chez Moeder Lambic. Cask. Sourish aroma with oak, lemon and sweet apples, slightly herbal. Sweet flavor with cantaloupe melon, oak, lemon and caramel. Lovely!

Draft - Raisin and green apple or tea leaf notes. Clear copper gold. Bitter and some tea leaf with a long bitterness in the finish. The weird tea bitterness is dominant for me.

At the brewery. Smooth sweetish and round. Sourish beginning, round and smooth with not too much sweetness. Long sourish-sweet aftertaste, nice.

Tap at Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Clear dark golden with quite big and lasting white head. Lots of funky grains, sweet lemon, typical Cantillon wood and twigs, hay, peach, sweet white grapes, bitter herbs. Light sour, under medium bitter and almost medium sweetness tying it all together. Medium bodied with very soft carbonation. Maybe a bit too bitter, but a nice beer and a great faro.

At Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Clear golden with thin white head. Grain, hay, tea, grapes, sugar syrup, young green, resiny. Light sour over medium sweet sugary base, light minerallike saltiness. Balances out really well. Medium body, unnoticeable carbonation. Very drinkable, very nice.

Glass at the brewery. Poured pale, bit of foam. Still usual Cantillon autumn funk aroma. Taste for this one was sweeter and still feeling light. Sourness there but not too pronounced, more going on in the funk department.
