Basic lambic. I remember drinking this at a mediocre and over priced Belgian cafe. Not a bad lambic, but not the best.

Bottle. Dark pinky-red with a thin off-white pinkish head. Cherry malty nose, trees, not offensive, sweetish. Moderately carbonated mouth, sweet cherry, woody, then a touch of sourness. Reminds me of sweet cherry sweets I ate as a child, and black forest gateaux. Not much palate, what there is is a bit woody. Slightly sour towards the end. All in all, well rounded, not bold enough for my liking though. Bit ’flimsy’

Weak aroma, but hints of cherry. Color is red. Taste is a combination of cherry and sour. Dry to the palate. A nice lambic.

bottle. Poured a deep redd colour with a fairly non existnat head though it was a little too cold and I wasn’t the one pouring. The flavour rounded itself out nicely as it warmed.. The first sip was a little frightening. I found it mostly enjoyable but my father-in-law disagreed (guess it wasn’t such a great thank you gift for him after all...) I will have to give the Lambics some thought and try a few others to see what I think.

375 ml bottle. Red color. Sour cherry flavor. Cherry aroma. Nice carbonation. Head disapeared after a couple of minutes. Nice beer.

375 ml Bottle: I’m glad to see that I don’t hate lambics, I just hate Chapeau Exotic. The bottle is excellent with a cool cork top, and it pours great. Nice thick head with a ruby red body, very little visual carbonation. Aroma heavy in cherries, but quite pleasant. More carbonation in the taste, with heavy cherry flavour imparted with a very delicate lager-style backing. I’m actually quite impressed with this as far as the style goes, I’d have one again. Probably a good one during the summer heat, but perhaps not at the price.
