Lindemans Pomme Lambic

And we finally have our first lambic, took long enough considering we've done, what, 12 reviews before this? Oh well, at least we're starting with an interesting one to begin with. The Lindemans Pomme (apple) Lambic pours greenish yellow in color with a nice robust off-white head. Now we could have started with the traditional raspberry or strawberry lambic but that wouldn't be fun. We jumped right into the green apple. It, of course, smells like green apples - in a way you would expect from a good cider. The taste is strong, sour green apples, slight alcohol sting, and other sweet fruits in the background. It is a good lambic, but I would go to this as a desert beer and not much else.

Appearance - 3.5
Smell - 4.0
Taste - 4.2
Texture - 3.6
Overall - 3.83/5
