Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Deep purple, pink head. Tart evident black curant aroma. Sweet black currant flavour with a fair amount of drying vinegart acidity. Tart enough to be refreshing, but with a very straight forward and overpowering black currant flavour, taking away the complexity of the lambic base.

Wow... I’m relatively new to the lambic world, but this is quite curious. Huge aroma of intense currant. Dark red/maroon color with good clarity. Huge flavor! Very sweet with a sour finish and currants all around. I don’t know... good but really too sweet for me. Not what I was expecting. Currant is good but not quite my cup of tea.

pours a burgandy red with a pink head, aroma is of currents (of course), tart and tingly going down, black currants dominate every aspect of this beer which reminds me of Elderberries.

Bottle. Pours a dark reddish color with a small pinkish white head. Fruity and slightly tart black currant aroma. Sweetish black currant flavor with some tart hints. Sweetish fruity black currant finiah.

my least favorite lindeman’s lambic, and I’m a big fan of dark berries. taste here was too acidic and bitter for my liking though.
