Fruit Lambic 7 º

Boerenerf

This vintage Fruit Lambic presents an evocative sensory bridge between traditional spontaneous fermentation and garden-fresh produce. The 2021 harvest of homegrown red beets imparts a striking magenta brilliance without the typical heavy earthiness, instead offering a clean, refreshing vegetal sweetness. Macerated within funky Lambic and masterfully backblended with crisp cider, the profile balances sharp lactic acidity with bright apple-skin tannins. Notes of barnyard funk and aged hay from the wild yeast harmonize with the vibrant, fermented beet character, resulting in a complex, bone-dry finish that remains lively and sophisticated on the palate.

Appearance. Vibrant ruby-magenta color; thick, pink-tinted, mousse-like head with excellent retention; slightly hazy but with a brilliant glow.

Aroma. High intensity with dominant fermented beet and tart apple skin notes; complex background of barnyard funk, wet hay, and aged cheese; negligible hop presence and minimal wheat malt character.

Taste. Sharp, clean lactic tartness leads into a refreshing beet flavor that avoids soil-like earthiness; the cider blend contributes crisp acidity and light tannins; bone-dry finish with a lingering, funky complexity and no perceiveable hop bitterness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a lively, champagne-like high carbonation; noticeable tart puckering without harshness; well-integrated warmth reflects the 7% ABV.
