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.

A vibrantly lavender fluffy head sits atop this fragrantly tart lambic. Yeasty and somewhat tangy with pronounced notes of blueberry, raspberry, cherry, molasses, and of course, currant. Exceptionally fruity and exceptionally drinkable. Pair with a triple creme cheese and baguette for an out-of-this-world dessert.

750mL bottle. Pours a bold, hazy ruby color; significant pink head with great retention and textured, mixed-bubbled lacing; great pour. Solid amounts of funk and dark fruits in the aroma; nicely, lightly tart and much more solid fun than other Lindemans. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: dark fruitiness, tart citrus (lightly tart, but definitely present), and plenty of solid funk upfront; not genuine lambic, and closer than any of the other Lindemans so far; a good guilty pleasure. Medium finish: tart citrus, lingering funk and plenty of dark fruits; a touch sweet on the end.

Bottle from Total Wine. First time rating this, but not the first purchase and consumption. Pours a dark purple color with half a fingernail of lavender head. Nose is grape and other dark fruits. Loads of berry, twigs, and vinous fruits in the flavor. Bursts with tartness. High carbonation and light/medium body. Refreshing and tasty. After tasting this I broke my girlfriend’s only flute and paid for it with shards of glass in my bare foot. Serves me right, eh?

Bottle from Dranken Geers. ABV 3.5% Deep purple colour. Deep pink thin head. Aroma of Ribena. Yep, it’s like me mam’s blackcurrant homemade jam. Not disgusting, in fact, quite drinkable. A very fruity beer. Bit over sweet, but it’s perfectly drinkable. Some fruit sour sting on finish.

This Lambic I like, it takes like a fruit refresher after hot day. slightly tangy but not sour, and the right amount of fruity sweetness

One of my favorite Lindemans. Great flavor, reminded me of my time in London.
