Commercial Description:
Lindemans Cassis is a lambic made from local barley, unmalted wheat, and wild yeast. After spontaneous fermentation the lambic is aged in oak. Black currants are added creating a secondary fermentation and yielding an ale of exceptional flavor and complexity.

750mL bottle. Pours mauve with thin pink head. Strong cassis aroma, overly cassis taste. 3rd in line behind Framboises and Kriek.

Probably my favorite Lindeman’s lambic - the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and characteristic fruit flavor. I really like this stuff!

Bottle at local bar. Purple/red color with pink head. Sweet, juicy aroma and flavor. Nice lacing. I think I like this one better than the raspberry flavor by Lindemans. Still, very sweet, I can only have one or so.

What a surprise! Pours near black in color with dark purple head, though the body of the beer is more of a dark red when held to a lightsource. Head is thick, rich, laces well, and is mystifying to look at. Nose is intense with mixed dark berries that are hard to pin down - maybe some blackberry, blueberry, and a faint echo of grape soda from childhood. This dessert beer is creamy on the palate with an explosion of sweet & tart dark fruits that come through like the intensity of a spirit but without the alcoholic bite. Finish is very, very long.

355 mL bottle from Whole Foods Glen Allen, VA. Pours a cherry red color with a thin head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma is currants, cherries, oak, grape. Taste is sweet berries, currants, cranberry, oak notes. Medium bodied.

Flaske: Rød lilla øl med et fint lille skumhoved. Duft af solbær. Smagen er tør sur og en god del solbær. Næsten for tør til min smag. Men drikbar bestemt.

Dark pink/purple color with a small pink head. Aroma: Sour, black curant, wood. Taste: sour, black curant, a little acid. Some wood and old cellar too. Pretty high carbonation. Very refreshing. One of my first experiences with this type of beer, but definitely not the last.

Deep purple colour with light purple foamy head. Intense, sweet, juicy aroma of blackcurrant. Flavour is very sweet and sharp with a lingering sweet, syrupy finish.
