About
Op de grens van Groot-Bijgaarden en Sint-Ulriks-Kapelle staat een hoeve waar boeren en brouwen tot op de dag van vandaag gecombineerd worden. Tot voor de Tweede Wereldoorlog was dit in het Pajottenland de gewoonste zaak van de wereld, maar sindsdien liet men overal de boerenstiel voor wat hij was en concentreerde men zich enkel op het brouwen van lambik. Niet zo op de Lindenberg, daar zet de familie Girardin deze traditie al vier generaties verder.

I've heard that Girardin has a rather variable character, but I hardly ever get to try the stuff to find out for myself. Well, as brilliant as it was when I first had it over 3 years ago, it wasn't nearly as good this latest time out. It was far too creamy and yoghurty. Of course, I was the only one who thought it was too sweet, but what are you gonna do?

Framboise from Brouwerij Girardin

8/10 — Appearance 10 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
The sweetest of the Girardin beers (unless they have a Faro I don't know about), but bear in mind that sweet is a relative word. The fruit flavours do begin to drown out some of the earthy lambic complexity. Thankfully, there is plenty to spare.
