Lindemans Framboise

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

I usually don’t like lambics, but this one is just great. Small head, read color. Great raspberry flavor, nice to drink in the summer.

Pours a light purple with a thin head. Taste of sweet raspberries. One glass was enough for me, however my wife loved it.

Nice dark crimson/purple color, very thin beaded head. Very fresh aroma of tart and fresh raspberries. Love the taste in small quantites, but too sweet and acidic for mass consumption. Also, 2.5% APV makes me sad.

Very thick beer with little to no head. Tastes of strong fruit and light alcohol. Basic generic rating (insert fruit flavor here).

Pours a dark reddish purplish color, with basically no head. Smell is of tart raspberries. Tastes strongly like raspberries too. Has the taste of a wine spritzer or something similar to that. Not oversweet, but much sweeter than a traditional beer. Prounounced raspberry taste and aftertaste along with a sourness. Highly carbonated. Not cloying, and very drinkable for what it is. Interesting, but not very beer-like. Tried also mixing it with Young’s double chocolate stout to make a "raspberry truffle" but it didn’t turn out as good as I had hoped.

xxx I loved this beer the first time I had it. that was before I started really drinking different beers. Now I find it overly-carbonated and not the best raspberry flavor, and it has no alcohol.

This is my all-time favorite beer. To me its so sweet as if I were drinking wine but I can taste the key ingredients that make beer unique. Try adding this to Hoegarden for an extra tasty treat.

Although is has a near water alcohol percentage, it is delicious. A crisp and tart flavor flows across your mouth freely. Wonderfully paired with a piece of chocolate cake drizzled with ganache or some chocolate mousse. This is more of a dessert beer, although I am sure there are some other dishes it would complement.
