Lindemans Pêche Lambic (Pêcheresse)

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

A typical Lindemans fruit lambic. Aroma was suprisingly weak. Peach and apple mostly. Pour was a nice light gold with a huge 3 finger white head. Taste was a little weak as well. Sweet fruit and nice bubbly carbonation. Didn’t really taste peach in this, but more pear and apple. Sugary sweet aftertaste.

Pours orange/amber with instant fizziness but minimal head. Aroma is a nice blend of sweet peaches mixed with apple cider. Flavor is similar, predominately apple cider with noticeable balanced sourness with bright fine carbonation and overtones of subtle peach. No hops at all. Not overly peachy, but definitely fruity...almost more like a fruit juice than a beer, but tasty. The palate is different but nice, like drinking sparkling cider or champagne. Nice on occasion, but not daily.

750 ml bottle. Pours a straw/peach color. Obviously, this one is chock full of peachy goodness. This is the type of beer you can enjoy as a dessert.

I don’t like peaches and I don’t like lambics. Not really sure what I was thinking with this one. Pours a light peach color with a medium sized fluffy head that is semi carbonated. Nose is peaches. Taste is overwhemling peaches with a bit of funk and some wood. I just said yuck and put it down.

we are both drinking out of the new lindemans’ glass she bought me as an early christmas present. this beer appears to be a hazy blonde (kind of like the missus) with a about a quarter inch of light head with very nice lacing. i like the way this beer looks, especially in the glass. the smell of this beer is BIG peach. very robust. i could smell it all day. the taste of this beer is again peach. it’s a very refreshing tasting beer. it’s very fruity and sweet, but not in a bad way. the mouthfeel on this beer is great. very carbonated and it’s a near perfect balance. i could drink these every day, but i don’t. this is a great beer at night after a nice meal. i’d love to have a piece of pound cake with it.

Bottle poured into a flute. Pours a honey straw color with a medium white head. Leaves a thorough, pretty lacing on the glass. Looks like a typical American wheat (save the nice lacing). Aroma is pleasant... very sweet and fruity, peaches definitely distinguishable, but not much else...leaves the nose wanting a bit more. The flavor is extremely sweet, alomost candy-like, very peachy, and the candy sweetness lingers for some time. Some sour character coupled with the aforementioned sweetness gave this a bit of depth and complexity. Okay palate, could use a little more thickness, but the carbonation adds to its refreshing quality. Overall I thought this was a very tasty beer, very drinkable, although left me wondering how legitimate the ’beer’ classifaction really is.

Sweet aroma for this pale orange lambic. Very sweet flavor with a slighty tart aftertaste. Good for dessert.
