Fruit lambic

Fruit lambic is a traditional Belgian beer that combines the complex, tart flavors of a lambic—an withered, wild-fermented beer—with added fruits such as cherries, raspberries, or peaches. The fermentation involves wild yeasts and bacteria, giving it a naturally sour profile with fruity aromas. The fruit not only enhances the flavor but also contributes sweetness and color, balancing the beer’s acidity. Aged over months or years, fruit lambics develop layered, nuanced taste profiles—fruity, sour, and funky—making them distinctive and highly valued among beer enthusiasts.
