Pineapple – Aged in Oak Casks
12.7oz bottle
$6.99
Brouwerij De Troch
Wambeek, Belgium
This is a strange set-up; there is a cap on the bottle with
a cork underneath. As I start to open
the cap with a bottle opener there is a little sprits of liquid. Once the cap is off I see that the cork is
soaked and there is liquid sitting on top of the cork. How did this happen. You don’t store beer bottles on their side,
so how can a cork get this wet? I sure
hope the Lambic is fine.
Appearance: rich golden-amber color
Aroma: sun dried pineapple fruit, caramel sugar toasted
pineapple rings, nice oaky
Flavors: No way – it tastes like pineapples – get out of
here. Sweet pineapples glide of the
taste buds.
Mouthfeel: low carbonation, smooth texture, lingering sweet
pineapple on the palate.
My Strength Rating: 3 – mild
To the Point: this would be great during a tropical or
Hawaiian party. Maybe pair this with
some citrus marinated shellfish or how about as a desert.
I usually pan these Lambics or other fruity beers off onto
my wife but, I am going to finish this one.
