It looks like a red merlot with a thick head and spotted red laceing along the sides of the glass. The nose has a seasalt breeze with strong black currants and a sour funk. The flavor is very strong initially with sour dark fruits on the tip of the tounge and sweet juice syrup along the side walls of my mouth. There is a real lot of carbonation as it tingles and pops on your tounge. I do enjoy the sweet tart finish of all the dark fruit and some hints of flaked barley and the wild yeast funk.

my least favorite lindeman’s lambic, and I’m a big fan of dark berries. taste here was too acidic and bitter for my liking though.

Pours deep purple with a pink head. Nose is a bit musty and funky along with berries. The flavor is the same, with some blackberry and raspberry like tartness. Dry finish.

Dark purple pour with a pinkish head. Aroma and flavor dominated by sweet dark berries, which turn a bit sour on the finish. Not bad.

bottle; deep purple with pink head. tart raspberry and presumably black currants, delicate tickle from carbination followed by sweet malt balanced with lots of tart fruit. and finishes with a sour lingering dark berry aftertaste. surprisingly well balanced and delicate tasting lambic.
