Lindemans SummerBerry combines the tangy side of ripened lambic with a year in the woods with the intense taste of freshly picked berries.
The Lindemans Brewery is synonymous with tradition linked to innovation. Lindemans SummerBerry is what is called in brewing jargon a "Session beer": a unique and punctual brew in a certain style (here a fruity lambic) whose main condition is a lower alcohol content, without concessions in terms of taste. A refreshing and easy-drinking beer, with lambic acid and fresh berry notes. The perfect ally for a beautiful summer day!

Medium pink head, retreating with some lace over hazy terra cotta to cyclamen beer. Strawberry, strawberry jam, smelling seriously sweet. Sweet-sour flavour, some strawberry, but already more others, elderberry probably, certainly applejuice. Lactic acid, other acids. Finish has a strange, almost chemical streak - the stevia, maybe? Thankfully less sweet than the nose suggested. Light, not all that refreshing - too sweet for that. Decent carbonation. Not that bad, but a true strawberry and apple lambic would have been much nicer.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Bottle looks very interesting. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Intense sweetish strawberry aroma. Starts sweetish-malty, intense strawberry notes. Finish more balanced. Too sweet for me.

0.25 l bottle from 'drankgigant.de', best before February 2022. Slightly hazy, ruby with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Extremely sweetish, fruity and a bit artificial aroma of strawberry jam, raspberry and gummy bear. Heavily sweet, minimally sourish, quite fruity and a little artificial taste of mainly strawberry jam, raspberry, gummy bear and sherbet powder, followed by a short, sticky and a little tart finish. Thin to medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. A 'lambic beer with a refreshing kick' is supposed to be something else than this cloyingly sweet alcopop. Even considering Lindemans' sweetened lambics, this beverage isn't worth of carrying the brewery's name.

Many thanks to Beerhunter111. Fruity artificial dry beginning. Sticky artificial aroma there with artificial sweetener. Chemical raspberries, cherries. Sweetish fruity-chemical aftertaste.

Bottle shared with dirtbag bro. It pours lightly hazy red with a foamy off-white head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, sugary, big sweet strawberry jam character, Victoria sponge cake, tangy strawberry candy, gummy bears and jelly beans. The taste is really rather sweet, sugary, tangy strawberry candy character, jelly beans, jammy, Victoria sponge cake, boiled sweets and tang with a sweet, sugary finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. A sweet strawberry soft drink in reality.

Smell is extremely sugary. Red fruits ( syrup , grenadine ). Taste is full, very sweet, red fruits, sugar, syrupy, red fruit lemonade. Certainly easy drinkable though. OK body and carbo , both are medium. Made to be easely enjoyed by a wide audience. it's a given I find this too sweet and sugary, yet its hard to hate something thats this easy drinkable, and ( all be it chemically, and sweet ) taste -intense. Let's call it a guilty pleasure, and one of those unique times a brewer can be happy I Always rate personally on Brewver, and not on quality or naturality …

Fles op vakantie geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een troebel rood roze bier met een roze schuim. Het heeft een fruitige wat zurige geur. De smaak is fruitig en zoet, goede aardbei smaak.

Rozerood bier met schuim. Smaak is zoet en fruitig met overduidelijk aardbei. Niet onaardig, heeft een echt natuurlijke smaak.
