15/VIII/14 - on tap @ Internationaal Streekbierenfestival (Zwevegem) - BB: n/a (2014-906) Thanks to Johan and Fokke for sharing today's beers!

Clear ruby red beer, creamy pink head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: sweet, very fruity, black currants, syrupy, sugary, forest fruit candy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very fruity, bit sugary, sour notes, lemony, sour berries, bit syrupy sweet. Aftertaste: some bitter tannins, maybe due to the skins of the currants? Sourish, red berries, syrupy sweetness, lemony, cherry flavoured chewing gum.

Dunkel lilafarbenes Bier mit ordentlicher Schaumkrone. Geruch sehr fruchtig nach Blaubeeren, säuerlich, genauso ist auch der Geschmack.

25cl bottle @ Les Crepes de Sophie, Shrewsbury. Pours a deep purple with large purple head. Very rich, sickly sweet blackcurrant taste and slightly fizzy which was a bit off-putting. Don’t think I’ll feel a yearning for this any time soon.

Bottle @ Bedford Arms, Bedford. Pours purplish reddish black with a big shark-got-the-guy-in-the-water head. Aroma is a big currant hit with a hint if seawater. The taste is a sour fruit flavour, nicely balanced. A decent beer.

I don’t drink many lambics due to the fact that I’m not a true fan, however, I have a friend who is determined to change my mind.
Into a stange.
The appearance is a purple/pink colored body that starts off with a finger’s worth of a foamy white head; lacing is sporadic and clingy all around
The smell starts off with some raspberry, and as she warms, there’s a light blueberry combining to mainly make it semi-sweet but yet carries a somewhat tart/sour connotation to it.
The taste is centered around some raspberry and blueberry combination of tart to sweet balance-ness, gets kinda juicy (must be authentic); sweet sticky aftertaste; watery juicy finish.
The palate is light to medium sort of body with a somewhat softer carbonation to it, and somewhat sessionable.
Overall, this is a lambic I could drink again. This didn’t come across as too vinous, overly tart or too sour.

250ml bottle from Beers Of Europe. Pours hazy red/purple with a thin pink head. Aromas of blackcurrant cordial, vimto, slight sour note. Taste has a much bigger sourness, lip-puckering. More big blackcurrant flavours, creamy texture and a smooth finish. Nice, for what it is.
