Tasting - Lambic Beers

Lambics are, absolutely wonderful and amazing. As it says on the back of the bottles "Lindemans [insert name] is a lambic made form local barley, unmalted wheat and wild yeast. After spontaneous fermentation [a fruit] is added, creating a secondary fermentation and yielding a beer of exceptional flavor and complexity." So a super fruity double fermented beer, what is not to love. 

Kriek. First one I tasted, was a little warm, not sure if that hurt the flavor any. Aroma is a strong cherry and yeast. Like pouring cherry cough syrup over a slice of bread. The flavor is a very sour cherry with more yeasty notes in the finish.

Framboise. Much like the Kriek, the nose was full of raspberries and bread. The flavor was better though. A sweet raspberry with subtle yeast flavors and notes from the wheat and barley. Think a slice of toast with raspberry jam. Very tasty.

Peche. Peach, as you might have guessed. Definitely my favorite. The grain and yeast integrated marvelously with the peaches. The smell is just like peach cobbler. Sweet peaches mixed with fresh bread. The flavor has very little of the yeast component found in the other two.
