Top Tastings 2008. A shorter version first appeared on facebook January 2009.
ABV: 5%
Origin: Sint-Ulriks-Kapelle, Vlaams Brabant, Vlaanderen
Brouwerij Girardin
For the style this is easy drinking but top quality from one of the most respected lambic breweries, a cherry-red beer with a creamy, woody and tannic aroma rich and oily with natural cherry skin perfume. A spicily fruity natural cherry palate has thick and sappy lambic and mint notes, a poised sweet-tart balance , and a chewy finish with lingering cherrry notes that’s fresh and fruity but not oversour. Unfiltered and sampled on CO2 pressure at the Zythos Beer Festival.
