Served from cask at Drei Fonteinen into a tumbler as all lambic seems to be served in Payotenland. Perfect match for a Guinea Hen cooked in this same beer.
Appearance: hazy, almost murky purple-red body with a surprisingly thick frothy pink head that slowly dissipates to bubbly lace.
Aroma: Huge cherry aroma, ample wood, touches of lactic acid, hints of plastic tarp.
Taste: This is the real deal! A pefect blend of tart fresh cherries, lambic sourness, lactic acidity that adds a wonderful creaminess, and tannic qualities that add depth and character. Currants and to a much lesser degree plums and strawberries are also found. Outstanding.
Mouthfeel: Rich, creamy, moderately sour but quite tart, bubbly, surprisingly dry.
Drinkability: A plus.

I thought this Lambik was pretty good.
Look: Dark red with a frosty bubbly look, quickly vanishing head
Aroma: cherry, citrus
Taste: The flavor is slightly sweet, more tart, with a distinct cherry flavor.
Feel: light and refreshing.
