Lindemans Faro
It’s made from malt, wheat, hops, water, yeast. Candy sugar is added before the bottling takes place. It is a clear, light red colored faro lambic with a small, creamy head.

Clear amber color with small white head. Aroma has sweet candy and fruity notes. Taste is fruity with long sweet aftertaste. Flavors of caramel, syrup, apples and white berries.
250ml bottle. Pours a dark gold with soft white head. Strong Belgian sugars on the nose with hints of ripe white fruits. Medium body with strong residual sugars and subtle white fruits behind. Hidden tartness right at the back.
25cl bottle from store in Bruxelles, drinking it on 25/07/2021 BB 08 JUN 2023 Pours hazy orangy dark amber with good white foam on top and not too much lacing. Aroma is quite strong, barn, yeasty and a bit funky already (but not really much), some fruites and apple cider maybe, but you can really already feel that is going to be sour but quite sweet also. Having tried some gueuze before I have to say that this one is quite easy in comparison. Taste is interesting and kind of sweet despite you can feel the lambic sourness and it's indeed very good and complex, yeasty and winey, rich enough. Medium body, smooth texture and lively carbonation. Quite pleasant and refreshing, maybe a touch too sweet overall. Nice tart finish. Very good.
355ml bottle from Beers of Europe. A neck wrapper, cap and a cork, maybe they could encase the bottle in concrete just to be on the safe side. My first Faro Lambic and there only seems to be 19 current beers in this style.
Pours a clear brown with brief fizzy white head which didn't last long.
Aroma is yeasty, sweet, apple puree baby food, berries. Interesting.
Taste is sweet, tangy, apple, cherry, berry, caramel, light sourness.
Medium bodied, slightly syrupy, high carbonation.
Very fruity and tasty. Definitely a top 50 Faro!
Now lambic beer isn't my usual cup of tea but I thought I'd push the boat out here. The smell you get off it is very sweet with hints of apple. Appearance wise it's dark rich and ambery. The taste confused me deeply my taste buds wanted to think it was a cider but the flavour was far more complex. Sweet apple notes with some maltiness but the best thing about the flavour was that it lingered, there was no quick fade away. Interesting will have to delve more into the beer.
Butelka. Ładny, ciemny, bursztynowy kolor. Piana biała, szczatkowa, zanika szybko. W zapachu i smaku nuty moreli i brzoskwin z puszki, słodki syrop brzoskwiniowa, lekkie nuty białych winogron i agrestu. Kwasek cytrynowy. Wysycenie w górnych rejonach, słodkie o lekko cytrynowym finiszu. Orzeźwiające w ten parny dzień.
35,5 cl. bottle. Bought at Øliver. Low but lasting creamy white head. Clear dark amber body. Sweet fruity aroma of apples and pears. Dry and yet acidic sweet candy sugar flavor with no hops bitterness, low carbonation and a long sweet finish.
Ravgylden, meget lidt tynd skum, fin kulsure. Aroma er mild lambic. Smagen meget sød, måske lidt æblet lambic, mild vildtgær. Let drikkelig men lidt kedelig lambic.
The wine is very soft and sour. It is smooth due to the addition of sugar, but not light. It has all the flavors it should have, and can be used as food ration.
Dark amber in color. Almost no foam.
In aroma, there's a slight barn scent, some cherries, red apples, red wine.
It's sour, but also sweet. Zero bitterness. It tastes like cherry & apple juice. Great. Resembles a plum compote by a bit.
Rather light body (maybe leans sliiightly towards medium).
Bursztynowe praktycznie klarowne piwo z niezłą pianą która szybko znika. Aromat winny, ocet jabłkowy. W smaku podobnie, kwaskowe z lekką słodyczą
Una Lambic muy sabrosa. Aroma intenso a sidra y sabor agridulce. Muy recomendable.
T:M/Dolce carammellato, molto acido
Robe brune translucide, belle mousse blanche très aéré. Qui tombe vite. Très fines bulles nombreuses.
Nez acidulé de pomme verte plus note de caramel et sucré brun.
Première bouche sucré de caramel et sucre candi . puis saveur de pomme verte qui s acidifie dans le temps . Pétillant dans la bouche.Note de tarte tatin . Final très sucré . Bouche liquoreuse.
Trop sucré et linéaire à mon goût .
Wygląd: kolor ciemnozłoty,, lekko mętne, średnie nagazowanie, piany brak
Aromat: kwaśne wino, owoce, dzikie drożdżę
Smak, kwaskowy, słodki, śladowa goryczka
Cena ok. 8 zł/0,25 l but.
Caramel colour without head. Smell of apples and caramel. Taste of malt, Apple pie and brown sugar. Very smooth.
Aroma of intense apple puree, mild marzipan, sugar, and fruits
Caramel colour with no head
Taste of caramel sugar, baked apples, apple tart, marzipan, and brown sugar
Medium carbonation with oily mouthfeel
Nice to drink!
Sweety-sour belgian beer. Not so fruity as other lambic beers but still one of the best.

With the highest ABV of these session-able Lambics, it is also the one without any fruit flavouring. This allows the Lambic character to be appreciated by those who don’t want to be overwhelmed by the acidity and sour nature of a traditional Lambic while also providing unique flavours. So while Faro perhaps has the most depth of all the options, it is however not the best.

Słodko-kwaśne, piwo typu lambic o winnym, delikatnym smaku. W porównaniu do przedstawiciela tej marki Gueuze wypada naprawdę dobrze. Ciekawy smak, delikatny gaz, dominująca słodycz.
Ampolla 25 cl de hopt. Dolceta, fàcil de beure, carbonatació suau, correcta
Aspetto rosso rame, leggermente torbida. Al naso note acidognole e vinose. In bocca l'inizio acidognolo lascia spazio a note dolci piuttosto persistenti. Birra molto semplice ma gradevole.
Notas a manzana y sidra. Con un cuerpo fuerte, aunque podría llegar a ser refrescante.
Found out of bottle from store in Rybnik, Poland. Pours a dark red with a heavy sweet candy aroma. Sweet but enjoyable flavor.
Pours golden with a white head.heavily sweetened to counteract the bitterness, a bit too sweetened, if you ask me. A pleasant drinker nevertheless
Ein Bier, das ich vor Jahren schon einmal getrunken hatte und von dem ich mir jetzt wieder ein Fläschchen gönnte.
Es hat nicht viel mit "richtigen Bier" zu tun, sondern ein klassisches Lambic, das eher an Wein erinnerte.
Es hat wirklich tolle Aromen, auch wenn es etwas muffig nach Kork roch.
Feine Rotweinaromen mit ordentlich fruchtigen Noten vor einem Sauerbierhintergrund.
EIn durch und durch schönes Lambic.
Cerveza de estilo lámbico con azucar, cerveza muy dulce a la vez que ácida, pero compensada.
Aroma 8. Appearance 3. Taste 7. Palate 4. Overall 15. Acidic and brown sugar aroma. Sweet, apple, cider like taste.
Maybe my favorite beer. A must one for people who are not used to beer.
