50cl bottle from Fresh Market (Tampa, FL). Pours a dark red violet color with a one finger frothy pinkish-purple head that settles slowly and heavily laces the glass. Aroma is black raspberry, pepper, assorted ripe wild berries, and hints of malty sweetness. Flavor is much the same of the nose--ripe berry fruit flavors with some peppery malt notes and hints of honey and sugar. A medium body tart lambic with a sweet berry finish.

2002 vintage served in 2008. Pours a hazy purple body with a light purple head. Currants, berries, and light oak. Lightly acidic but still tart and creamy. Good stuff. Age truely did this justice. 4.0 Sampled fresh. 3.2.

Pours a lovely pinkish-purple with a small but lasting head and nice lacing. Aroma is musty, sweet and sour with just a touch of astringent blueberry skin. Tastes very sweet, purple concord grapes and a lingering cassis finish. Good carbonation and a somewhat creamy body. A fun, easy-drinking lambic.

Bottle: Classis lambic with bitter cassis but well balanced, nice once-in.a-while brew. Tasty.

Bottle from Gamel strands Ol o Vinlager. Considerd a 4 for apperence couse its nice to look at and looks different, but the content of 25percent cassis juice makes the apperence quite obvious. Lots of berries in aroma, apperence and flavour. Thirst quenching.

Bottle. Pours dark purple with pink hioghlights, frothy pink head, good lace. Smells very fruity and sweet, like... grapes. Tastes very, very sweet and fruity. Currants obviously. Only slightly tart. Ok, way too sweet. Medium body, good carbonation.

Bottle. Dark red body red wine like with a very small head. Blackcurrant all over in aroma. Very rich blackcurrant flavour with some sourness. It lacks carbonation but its very tastefull.

22/11 0.25 l bottle @ Hopdevil, Zagreb. It poured dark reddish purple body with smaller red head. Nice juicy blackcurrant aroma. Very pleasant flavor, too, maybe too juicy for my taste, but sourish lambic character is notable. Nice long and pleasantly sweetish finish within its fizzy carbonation. Nothing industrial or fake here, which makes it to stand out of the other Lindemans fruit lambics, I’ve tried so far. Good enough to be called a "beer".
