Lindmans Classis Lambic


Taste: SOUR!!

Conclusion: I am still undecided, do lambics count as beers, per say or are they an offshoot like ciders? For the purposes of this site, I will review them as a beer if for no other reason that I like them…
The black currants in this brew offer a great flavor I have not tasted in an alcoholic beverage. The initial sensation is sour, but it washes away, eventually, and gives way to a pleasant sweetness. I suppose you can enjoy this beverage with a dinner, but I fancy it more of a pallet cleanser. I kid you not, it almost dries your tongue and you are left with a flavor of nothing in your mouth. Its hard to describe what nothing tastes like, but its like having a crisp clean start for your next bite of food or sip of a drink. Pretty awesome trick…
