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, 0.18 l - BB 28.11.2013, courtesy of rosenbergh, 20140315) The beer poured reddish brown and clear. Its head was small and white. Aroma had strawberry essence, malts and sweetness. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Flavours were sweetness, strawberry essence, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and mildly tart. Not bad beer but too sweet.

Bottle at JF’s, thanks James, 17/08/13. Pours a murky rhubarb shade of red with a moderate off white head. Nose is artificial strawberry syrups, over sweet, sugar rush, light dung Taste comprises tarte strawberry, less sugary than the nose but artifical sugary strawberries none the less. Medium bodied, light spritzy carbonation. On the Meh scale of things - way too sweet and artificial.

Pinkish red colour, white head. Aroma of strawberry, strawberry jam, candy, sweetener, very sweet. Sweet flavour, strawberry jam, light funky sourness. Sweet finish, strawberry, strawberry juice.
The promising funkiness is there, but it’s too sweet for my liking.
(from 25 cL bottle @ home)

Bottle at the Brussels Beer Cafe, Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Poured a slightly hazy deep amber with a very thin off white head. I have to say, as strange as it may sound, that the aroma was very clearly of mature cheese! The flavour is medium sweet, with some carbonation and lots of raspberries and Belgian yeast. That cheesyness was there in the palate too. It was fine to drink once and a little unusual, but I won’t be buying a crate!

Bottle at home, smells a bit like strawberry and it tastes a bit like strawberry so the beer passed that test for me, but for the rest it isn’t that special.

330 ml bottle from Country Club Liquors.Nose is strawberries with hints of yeast. Murky purplish pink with a medium, heavy lacing pink head. Flavor is sweet ripe strawberries (but not as sweet as strawberry soda) No redeeming lambic characteristics other than appearance.
