Lindemans Pomme (75cl, 3.5%)

A Belgian fruit lambic beer blending spontaneously fermented lambic with apple juice, bottled at 3.5% ABV in a 750ml format. Brouwerij Lindemans has brewed in the Pajottenland region since 1822. The base lambic is brewed from local barley, unmalted wheat and wild yeast, then aged in oak casks for at least one year before a blend of selected apple varieties is introduced. Pomme joined the range in 2005. The aroma is led by fresh green apple, with floral accents and a subtle musty, hay-like funkiness. The palate is bright and sweet, with green apple candy and fresh-pressed apple juice, then buttery malt and light caramel. A soft sour acidity builds through the finish, which is medium in length and slightly tart.
