Chapeau Exotic

Brewed by Brouwerij De Troch
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Ternat-Wambeek, Belgium

25cL bottle. Refreshing lambic with a pineapple taste that is not overpowering. Just not my favorite style.

This lambic fruit pours a slightly hazy orange gold color from a corked and capped 12oz bottle. Small sized white foamy head. Aroma is pineapple juice, banana, some fruit and then some more pineapple. There may be a touch of tartness as well. A medium bodied fruit lambic. There are lots and lots of medium to low-grade pineapple juice flavor, which is kind of sweet tasting. There is some funk and tartness at the back of the taste, you just need to wait for all that pineapple juice flavor to go away, which can take awhile. The second sip was way better than the first. Interesting beer, glad I tried it but not sure I would want to drink this one too often. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is very sweet.

Light gold color with some haze and sediment. Sweet pineaple with coconut nose. Faint head. Some sour barnyard funk in there as well. Overly sweet body with a pineapple overtone and a bitter finish.

Bottle. Pineapple-orange syrup aroma (like the pineapple topping on a sundae or banana split) with a hint of vinegar. Cloudy orange-yellow color with thin film of a head. Super sweet pineapple flavor with moderate sour vinegar flavor - not a good combo. Probably the most beautiful sites in Belgium are the majestic pineapple fields.

Aroma of pineapple with hints of orange, super sweet. Taste is pineapple out its nut, iuts soo sweet i cant really put forward how sweet it is.

The banana wasn’t all that bad, but this? This is terrible. I was a bit angry at my wife for ordering this over a Lindeman’s. Yuck. Sorry for the non-traditional rating.

250ml bottle. Hazy orange beer with a small head. Aroma is actually not bad at all, not too extreme pineapple. Flavor is worse, extreme artificial pineapple juice and some coco. Much too sweet.

12oz bottle-Clear golden with a nice white head and an aroma of pineapple, banana, and cleaning supplies. Taste of pineapple and apple juice combined. Not bad but I don’t care for pineapple.
