For anyone who finds strawberries irresistible, Timmermans Strawberry evokes the fragrance of long sunny days. Its strawberry flavour will have you wrinkling your nose in delight with each sip. Its luminous colour and its fruity freshness are a treat for taste-buds and eyes alike. A totally juicy experience.
Timmermans Strawberry Lambicus is brewed by adding natural juice to lambic beer, a blend that is then fermented in oak barrels. After which it is bottled.
Taste wise… Its aroma evokes the perfumes of a lovely summer’s day. Its strawberry flavour confirms the nose’s impression, without being over-sweet, and is enhanced by a real feeling of freshness, recalling those tiny green granules that are found around ripened strawberries. Its taste is consistent and spreads very quickly throughout the mouth, finishing on a note that is fruity rather than sweet.

Bottle - Milky and creamy strawberry. Reddish orange with a creamy pink white head. Sweet syrupy strawberry, some creamy notes and a finish that is a bit too long.

Some strawberry with some burnt notes. Not as bad as everyone has rated it but not among the better lambics. Only light lambic bretta aroma here. Seems like they have a market for this as it’s sold everywhere. Bottle.

33cl bottle. Pours hazy red with a think light pink head. Aroma: strawberries. Taste: sweet strawberry syrup which is nice, not too artificial, but it’s followed by a slightly unpleasant off-tasting flavour, maybe some malt or another quite sour/tart fruit, not sure. Medium body and carbonation.

Bottle shared on the train to Birmingham Beer Bash 2016. Pours a lightly misty vivid pink, frothy white head. Aroma is sweet strawberries. Taste is light, almost watery with an acute strawberry juice character. Not as sickly or artificial as expected. Not bad I guess, just lacks any real complexity or depth. Could be an English boxed fruit cider in a blind taste.

Pours hazy red with a minimal off-white head. The aroma has... strawberries, some other fruits and jelly. It tastes medium to heavy sweet with a well balanced light sour finish. Light body, sticky texture, soft carbonation. Decent for a strawberry beer.

Bottle as Timmermans Strawberry Lambicus (from SIP). Pours hazy amber reddish with huge whiteish head with pinkish hue. Aroma is sweet strawberry jam. Flavor follows the nose. Body is bit watery. Overall: I like strawberry jam, hence in hedonistic scale I don’t mind this.
