Lindemans Pêche Lambic (Pêcheresse)

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

Pours a clear gold with a moderate, fizzy white head that dissipates fairly quickly. Sweet aroma of peach and yeast. Flavor is lots of peach, but not as sweet as the apple or raspberry examples. The sweetness in those too is very cloying to me, this one is a little more nuanced. Whereas those get old after a few sips, this is very drinkable.

Courtesy of markwise. Pours clear gold with micro thin white head. It has big sweetness and mildly funky aromatics with a dash of earthiness in the background. It punishes the imbiber with sweet flavor of peach to go along with a thin layer of funk and then further re-assurance of syrupy sweet extract peach sweetness. Honestly, I thought it would be worse. Oh! That’s right. This isn’t Chapeau.

12oz bottle. Poured near-clear peachy-golden with a short, fizzy cap of white head. The aroma picked up sweet and sour peaches (sourness from the skin) paired with dry, dusty, funky character.. sweet overall and summery. The flavor opened with tangy peach skins and a touch of lemony sourness.. sugary-sweet peach candy on the middle.. tart finish with slight funk. Lighter-bodied with light scratchy carbonation on the palate.. tasty, but a lot sweeter than I like my lambics.

Bottle. Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma of fresh, seasonal peach with underlying notes of wheat. The flavour is sweet peaches but not overly, off putting sweet. It’s actually quite pleasant and not much sourness at all. For such a low ABV it holds up well and overall it’s a nice refreshing lambic.

Bottle at Chancey Smith’s in London, ON- A hazy yellow pour, is topped with a frothy eggshell cap that leaves nice lace. Full on fresh peach aroma, some yeast, tart citrus, smells inviting. Tastes sweet and tart. Lots of peach of course with a tart citric component that balances the sweetness. A bit of hops lead to a grassy finish. Very peachy and not overly complex, but refreshing and enjoyable. Thanks for the bottle Milos!

Pours a milky, light orange with a fluffy, 2 finger off white head that has excellent retention and leaves decent lacing. Aroma is grass, grainy malt, peach, a little skunk, fruity sweetness, a little melon and some lemon. Flavor is slighlty skunky up front, nice peach notes come in along with grass and straw notes in the middle and it finishes with a sweet, fruity, grassy fade. Palate is thin to medium bodied with a velvety texture and light, playful carbonation and a slightly syrupy feel. I’d say a little better than their Frambois and Kriek.

Reviewed 6/23/2009 (bottle): Pours a golden orange clear color body with an average whitish head, quickly diminishing. Aroma of strong carbonated peaches, fresh from a can-like. Some effervescence, and soda likeness. Sweet syrupy taste, peaches and sugar. Carbonation. Refreshing. Doesn’t pair necessarily well with spicy pizza.
