Dark orange/pink pour with a fantastic head and magnificent lacing. As some others have noticed there was a certain champagne like character to this beer.
Obvious sweet start with the infused blackcurrant taste, that gives a degree of tartness in the finish but not much else. Very fruity and refreshing, but this for me is strictly a once in a very long while brew.
Less obviously syrupy and sweet that the Lindemans range of “Lambics”, and a million times more drinkable than much of the Cantillion range, I put this in the “genuine, but drinkable” range of Lambics tthat neither of the other common Lambics in the USA (cantillion and Lindemans) fall into.
Good middle of the road fruit Lambic and definitely a much better option than many others to introduce newbies to the style. Still gives genuine representation without shocking like say, a Cantillion Kriek.
