Taste-wise… A sweet beer with a base of lambic enhanced with water and candy sugar, to make it just light enough. The sugared notes predominate, imparting a general flavour which does not intensify on the palate but is wonderfully refreshing.

Bottle - Light sweet apple and white grape. Clear gold with a decent white head. Apple juice, no acidity and some light tea leaf. There is a touch of acidic bite on the throat, but no real complexity or funk.

0.375 l bottle from Carrefour (Gent) as ’Timmermans Tradition Faro Lambicus’, best before September 2018. Clear, golden amber with a medium large, frothy, rather quickly diminishing, white head. Sweetish-sourish, fruity aroma of lemon, gooseberry, rhubarb and slight hints of barnyard. Sweetish-sourish, fruity taste of lemon, gooseberry, some rhubarb, brown sugar and a touch of barnyard, followed by a short, slightly tart finish. Thin to medium body, smooth and a little effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Not bad actually, not too sweet, some lambic is still recognisable and it’s definitely highly quaffable.

F: big, white, good retention. C: deep gold, almost clear. A: malty, candy sugar, apples, caramel, light basement, some vegetal, hint of vinegar. T: malty, sugary sweet together with tarty apple, peach fruitiness, citrus, mushrooms, light body, good carbonation, I am wondering by some high scores about this beer, for me refreshing but nothing special, lack of some complexity, 375ml bottle from Carrefour in Brussels.
