Cuvée de L’Amitie

Cuvée de L’Amitie

Ale Yeah! Atlanta, GA. Blended exclusively for the US market, the official description is thus; "Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée de l'Amitié is a limited edition lambic blend created exclusively for our fans in the USA. Its name roughly translates to...

Lindemans Oude Kriek Cuvée Rene

Lindemans Oude Kriek
Cuvée Rene

Another beer that I am astonished to see that I haven't got any formal, significant notes on. I've had this many times before, going back at least 20 years. 355 mL bottle, foil, capped and corked. 16 FEB 2033. Bright red-purple, grape juice color...

Tarot Noir

Tarot
Noir

A relatively new Lindemans lambic blend (2023). Also see D'OR. Classic Lindemans cassis type pour with a dark red body and a pinkish hue on the head. Head is really well-retained and provides some good lace. The nose has a plenty of dark berries of...

Tarot D’OR

Tarot
D’OR

A relatively new Lindemans lambic blend (2023) that wears their traditional, high sweetness as a badge of honor. I mean there's no two ways about this, it's extremely sweet and if that's not what you appreciate you'd be better of staying away from...

Lindemans Strawberry

Lindemans Strawberry

Astonished to see that I haven't got any formal notes on this beer before now - so here we go. Usual Lindemans fruit presentation, the usual outcome. Pinkish colored body sits underneath the bubbly/fizzy head. The color reminds me of canned...

Lindemans Ginger Gueuze

Lindemans Ginger Gueuze

$28.95 for the 750 mL bottle. I might like this in the end, but I don't think that it will be very good value. Anyway, I'm invested to this point, so here we go. Capped and corked, the beer opens with a really healthy pop. Good gun-smoke....

Lindemans Faro Lambic

Lindemans Faro Lambic

Additional notes 06/01/24 (pictured) $7.99 from Corner Stone, Columbus, OH. Relatively hard to find in the US these days. Pour offers that tremndous copper color that it always has, and again a good amount of light, bubble head. This is definitely...

Lindemans Gueuze

Lindemans Gueuze

Additional notes 07/13/25 The bottle pictured came directly from Blegium to me, is a 250 mL version, and is noted as being 5.0% rather than the 2008 notes showing a 4.0% beer. As I noted below in 2008, this beer has been absent from the US for...

Lindemans Kriek

Lindemans Kriek

Additional notes 05/20/24 (pictured) I don't find this beer nearly as sweet as I once did. In 2024, 16 years after my original notes it has a much more, genuine, sour cherry note that is not too sweet and does not tate artifical to me. It's still...

Lindemans Apple

Lindemans Apple

Additional notes 05/18/24 This still feels a little "Jolly Rancher" to me, and although not quite as sweet as remember it doesn't tastes especially natural to me. One of my least favorite of Lindemans fruits. Original notes 06/08/07 355 mL bottle,...

Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée René

Lindemans Oude Gueuze Cuvée René

If you want to know what traditional, real farmhouse cider from the West of England tastes like, the closest you can get in the USA is this stuff. If you were to remove the carbonation and add a hint of apple flavor to a Cuvée René, you would have...

Lindemans Framboise

Lindemans Framboise

Additional notes 05/18/24 Likely my favorite (along with cassis) of the Lindemans fruits, the Framboise has really strong raspberry flavor which seems like it comes stright from the seeds of a raspberry. Sweet? Yep, but also a decently tart finish....

Lindemans Pêche

Lindemans Pêche

Additional notes 05/20/24 (pictured) Along with the strawberry and apple, the peach is one of the three Lindemans fruit lambics that work poorest IMO. It's not too sweet, but it's just a bit bland. You need the tartness of the blackcurrant, cherry...

Lindemans Cassis

Lindemans Cassis

Updated notes 05/18/24 355 mL corked & caged. Going old skool. Still incredibly drinkable in small amounts, and the combo of sweet and tart is really perfect. This feels like a fruit cocktail to me, it always has, but from time to time I do not...
