Lindemans Cassis is a lambic made from local barley, unmalted wheat, and wild yeast. After spontaneous fermentation the lambic is aged in oak. Black currants are added creating a secondary fermentation and yielding an ale of exceptional flavor and complexity.

25 cl bottle. (3,5%) Yeast in bottom. Dark red colour with a nice but fast disapearing foam. Nice aroma of black currants. Nice flavour of black currants with notes of wood and a refreshing sourness.

Very Nice, not your typical Beer, but quite refreshing for a welcome change.

Sweet and artificial flavour. Not at all like a beer, more just a black currant soda, like some others mentioned. Really disappointing.

Cloudy dark red, medium lasting pink head. Aroma of blackcurrant, quite penetrating. Taste is sweet, blackcurrant, carbonating. It just tastes like a cassis soda. Not complex at all.

Aroma of berries, sweet and artificial. Cloudy, dark red coloured with a lasting, medium punk head. Taste is sweet siruppy, fruity (berries) and a slight sour finish. Sticky beer with a more dry finish.

Is it beer, or is it something else?? Well, pink head, and fine clear red colour. Both aroma and flavor is full of black currant. Sort of funny beer.

Labeled at only 3.5% ABV. A red beer with a huge pink head. The aroma is powerfully black currant - and nothing else - just like black currant juice - nice, but not really what I want in my beer. The flavor is very sweet with a good acidity and lots of black currant, leading to a dry woody note. I like the combination of the sweet black currant juice and the acidity.
