Lindemans Strawberry

Tap to rate

Designed with American palates in mind, this lambic added a new berry to the Lindemans fruit family in 2016. Hand-picked strawberries are blended with young lambic: sun-ripened strawberry in the nose, intense fresh strawberry on the palate, a full-bodied mouthfeel and a sweet-sour balance. Slightly cloudy red-orange, 3.5 % ABV.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Lindemans Strawberry

◎ Appearance

Slightly hazy red-orange with good translucency, revealing the fruit's natural pigmentation. A delicate white head forms and dissipates quickly, leaving minimal lacing on the glass. Fine carbonation creates a soft, creeping effervescence typical of the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright, sun-ripened strawberry—clean and direct, without jammy or cooked character. A subtle funky undertone from the young lambic base emerges beneath, adding complexity without dominating. Light citric notes round out the profile, suggesting green strawberry stem and a whisper of wild yeast.

◐ Taste

Intense fresh strawberry floods the palate immediately, with juicy, ripe fruit balanced by a lean tartness that prevents cloying sweetness. The mid-palate shows a full body despite the modest ABV, driven by the fruit and underlying lambic structure. A gentle sour-sweet tension persists, with a dry edge that keeps the finish clean and food-friendly.
