and not even october

Although we had a very very nice day of storms and rain, it's still August and the temps are going to go back up.  It's just a fact.  I guess a lighter, fruitier beer would be nice after all.  And there aren't many fruitier than those Belgian lambics, despite my guarded appreciation for them.  This is Lindeman's though, and I have been rather pleased before.  I can see a nice apple beer being a calming beverage on a cooler night than many.


It's surprisingly standard looking, although quite aromatic.  At a distance the scent is like apple perfume or apple scent additives, but up close it's a stronger cider sour.  Pretty resistant, clean white head.  Plenty of happy little bubbles dance their way to the surface.  It's a very active looking beer.  The apple flavor is a little strong.  This is more like apple juice and something like champagne than an apple flavored beer, although it's true that most of the fruit lambics are rather heavily weighed down with taste.  And with substance.  It's not a light and bubbly session style or crisp cider, there's definitely some stickiness.
