Lindemans Cassis Lambic

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

Pours a very dark purple almost black, pink head. This shit is like candy, it’s so sweet and so fruity, very tart, awesome dark berry flavor. Good beer but my stomach can only handle 1 every once in a while.

ruby red color with a fair sized light red head. The aroma iof currants, what a shocker. A nice berry flavor but it turns to a sour pucker afterwards.

Very nice, although the alcohol percentage was different. The colour was interesting, very sweet but not tiring. I liked it very much.

From notes, 01-12-06 Pours a vary dark hazy purple with a thick two finger pink head that slowly recedes to a rocky cap, that leaves behind tons of lacing. It’s kind of strange to see a purple head on my beer. Smell; very sweet with a very strong black currant smell. There’s also a bit of a sour smeel in the background. Taste; very sweet and fruity to start, followed by a slightly puckering sourness. It was a little hard to pick out at first because of how sweet this beer is, but there’s a bit of a peppery spiciness in the finish, that makes this slightly more enjoyable. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied. This is so sweet that I had a really hard time finishing it.

Dark purple, slightly red, some reddish head. Nose is berries, tannin, yeast, and more berries. Very syrupy, rather simple, but not bad to drink. Granted I would never buy this stuff, but I wont turn it down either. Begins rather sour, lots of cassis peel, finishes a bit sweet. Not much else to say really, but not a lambic lovers lambic, more like a vaginas kind of lambic.

From a bottle - Capped and corked. Poured deep reddish, pink frothy head that slowly dissolved. Smells like Juicy-Juice. Tastes of grape and cranberry are all over the place. Pretty good, though a little tart. I enjoyed other Lindemans a little more.

Bottled. Dark read with a rich white head. The aroma consists of blackcurrant and is sweet. The flavour has a sweet taste of blackcurrant and has an aftertaste with a "sting".

A Mes rate: 37.5cl bottle from somewhere in Bruges. Smells good, tastes ok, looks awesome. It’s just too sweet really. All blackcurrant syrup. Like Ribena beer.
