Style: Lambic - Fruit
Ternat-Wambeek, Belgium

Serve in Flute, Tumbler

12 oz bottle; nose is slightly tart and funky apircot, doesn’t smell sweet; slightly hazy light orange with some bubbles, but not much; flavor of sweet apricots with a touch of tartness, but not much!

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a small sized head of frothy medium sized bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a hazy light orange brown colored body and a oily lacing. The aroma was lambic like dry and smelled of apricots. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and strongly tingly at the finish. The flavor contained notes of semi-sweet semi-dry apricots. A decent one that I would consider buying again.

(Bottled) Slightly hazy golden color with a small head. Sweet, slightly tart, fruity aroma of apricots and wheat. Pretty sweet and sugary, mildly tart and acidic flavor of apricots and pear. light to medium body with lowish carbonation. A cheap and sweet lambic, but not as sugary as the worst. One of the few Chapeaus with even some tartness in the aroma.

Bottle. Small off-white head that fully diminished, no lacing, transparent, very, very little carbonation, and a light orange hue. Nose was sweet, sour, tart, sugary, syrupy, and apricots. Flavor was the same with some stickyness and dryness. Mouthfeel was smooth, syrupy and dry. Light body. Nothing to write home about with this one.

Pours light yellow...no head. Aroma is monster artificial apricot and sugar. Flavor is similar...except there is a bit of milk and caramel. This beer is for girls. Mouthfeel is syrupy. This doesn’t taste that bad...but it is hard to drink...sugar water. Maybe be good to pour over fruit for desert.

Bottle. Pours clear apricot, no head. Aroma is vanilla, apricot, whipped cream, cake. Flavor is apricot cake with whipped cream and cream cheese.

Bottle: Poured a hazy orange amber with white bubbly head. Aroma was fruit (apricot) and hints of wheat. the flavor was a sweet sugary fruit and grain finish.

(Bottle) Pours a lightly hazy golden body with a small white head. Aroma of fruit (apricot, peach) and corn syrup. Flavor of apricot and lots of sugar. Alcohol-pop...
