Melbourn Brothers Strawberry

Brewed by Melbourn Brothers (Samuel Smith)
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Stamford, England

A pinkish red beer with a fine lasting off-white head. The aroma is sweet with hints of strawberries and wood. The flavor is sweet but with hints of sourness from the wild fermentation in the background and notes of strawberries and wood.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Beautiful, clear dark amber with a slight, underlying shade of red. Crude, white head. Slightly tart aroma with a touch of fruit. Pronounced lambic tartness neatly balanced by the sweetness from the strawberries and the strawberry pulp. But still the character is very different from Belgian lambic. Leaves a pleasant tartness on your palate. A surprisingly authentic fruit lambic. 231005
