Lindemans Pêche Lambic (Pêcheresse)

Slightly cloudy golden body topped by a small white ring. I really really really didn’t like that abomination. The peach juice takes over everything, backed only by a little white sugar flavour. Barely a beer. Liked opening a can of peaches, removing the peaches and drinking the juice. Already bad, the very soft carbonation makes it lifeless bad. And to think they used a perfectly good lambic to make this. That hurts. I haven’t seen such a waste of valuable primary resources since George W Bush started to breathe-in oxygen and breathe-out carbon monoxide.

Pours a light peach color. Aroma is a bit of must, peach and that lambic funk that is lighter the some of Lindemans other styles. Taste is peach and the syrup that you get when you buy canned peaches. Not a whole lot else. Fizzy and easy drinking though at a whoppin’ 2.5%abv.

My label was not quite as cool as the one on this site, but this appears to be the same brew. Cost at my local North Coast Coop here in Eureka, CA was $9.45. Poured a hazy gold and left a small head that was gone in a jiffy. Big nose of peaches and some spices I cannot identify. Smooth palate. Taste is sweet but not overpowering. Very unique and nice to drink.

Bottle. Light amber colour wihtour head. Aroma and flavour of sweet peaches and spice.

(Bottle) Pours a light amber color with no head. Rather sweet, with peaches in the aroma and taste. Has some wine notes as well. Rather light palate. A pretty good lambic, but not something I could drink on a regular basis.

I just typed a long elaborate comment for this beer. But, having noticed that the photo didn’t match my bottle (no naked chick), I clicked the image for a closer look. When I went back to my rate, I found my hard work had been erased. Miffed and nt having the strength to repeat the process, I give you this: Air freshener aroma; jucy-juice flavor; low carbonation and complacent palate; overall, "yawn".

The color is hazy golden and the head is moderate. The sun ripe peaches pop out of the bottle in both aroma and flavour, the latter is quite sweet. A nice acidity balances the sweetness and I think this one would be nice with vanilla ice and peaches.

Peach smell, but not a lot of peach flavor. Tasted more like a champagne. Not bad, but not what I expected.
