Lindemans Cassis Lambic

Brewed by Brouwerij Lindemans
Style: Lambic - Fruit
St Pieters Leeuw-Vlezenbeek, Belgium

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.

Deep cranberry color wiht a creamy pink head. Tarty aroma...blackberries in the aroma as well. Very nice. Smooth crisp taste. Kind of like berry punch. Tarty, berry like. I’m a huge fan of Lambic’s and I really have an appreciation for what Lindemans does. Very good.

"Wow what a fruit lambic i love this one. Pour was a dark purple and the head was massive and purple was well. Flavor was fruity and tart-sweet. Mouthfeel was done very well in this one, i think they sweeten their lambics "

Nice deep red color with plenty of bubbles. Large fruity aroma, clearly lots of currant but also oak. Tingly mouthfeel. It stats out sweet and ends with a sour note.

Bottled. Dark ruby, firm pink head. Acidic black currants nsoe, not too sugary but more like strong old school currant juice. Flavor is more or less the same, base lambic gets totally lost, acidic spritzy finish. A bit sticky, sweet palate. yep yep, I do like ’em currants.

12 oz bottle Bier Stein. Poured so dark a red that it was nearly purple with a thin pink head. Aroma is vinous, currants and other fruit. Flavor was currants, grape, other vinous notes and some sweet sugar. Not horrible for a Lindeman’s product, but the small sample I had was more than enough. Too sweet for my palate!

Deep purple body with a pink head, lots of lacing down the glass. Aroma is of currants with some light woody notes. Mildly sweet, currants and a light vinegar notes. Some light tartness balancing out the fruity sweetness. Overall a bit too sweet, but that was expected from this one.

Big head, cranberry body, unusual nose: perhaps berries, but another poster’s reference to mint leaves rings true. This is very sweet yet very sour at the same time, but light on lambic-ness. Not bad, not great.
