Lindemans GingerGueuze

Tap to rate

Part of the Botanicals range: a blend of one- to three-year-old oak-aged lambic, infused with freshly cut Thai ginger and refermented in the bottle. Ginger's vibrant spice leads the nose with subtle citrus and delicate herbal hints; the palate starts crisp and lively, moves into a complex tartness with a warming depth and finishes dry with a subtle spicy kick. Golden blond, 6 % ABV, in the range since 2018.

◌ Aroma

Thai ginger dominates the nose with vibrant, warm spice notes that remain fresh and bright rather than candied. Supporting the ginger are subtle citrus undertones and delicate herbal whispers that suggest the underlying oak-aged lambic base. The overall effect is aromatic and inviting without being heavy or one-dimensional.

◐ Taste

The palate opens crisp and lively, with the ginger's warmth immediately evident on the tongue. Mid-palate reveals the gueuze's characteristic complex tartness and light sourness, layered beneath the spice. The finish is bone-dry with a subtle spicy kick that echoes the ginger, creating a balanced interplay between the lambic's acidity and the botanical infusion.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and lingering, with the spice gradually receding to reveal subtle herbal and citrus echoes. No cloying sweetness remains—only a pleasantly dry aftertaste with a gentle warming sensation.
