About this product
Crisp orchard apples meet the refreshing character of Belgian lambic.
Think of the freshness of a crisp apple, the sparkle of a fruit beer and the gentle tang of traditional Belgian lambic. Lindemans Apple brings these elements together in a golden, cider-like beer that offers something a little different from both conventional lager and classic cider.
Brewed in Belgium, this distinctive fruit lambic combines the rounded sweetness of red apples with the fresher, sharper character of green apples. The result is fruity without being one-dimensional, with a delicate tartness from the lambic adding lift and balance to every sip.
Introduced in 2005, Lindemans Apple is an easy-going introduction to the world of Belgian fruit beers. Its bright apple character and refreshing finish make it a natural choice for anyone who enjoys cider, fruit-forward drinks or simply discovering something new in the beer aisle in Ireland.
Why we love it:
Lindemans Apple sits in that lovely space between beer and cider, combining familiar orchard-fruit flavours with the extra character of Belgian lambic. The blend of sweet red apple and crisp green apple keeps things interesting, while the subtle tang makes it refreshing rather than cloying. A brilliant option for anyone looking to explore beyond the usual beer styles.
