Timmermans Strawberry
Originally called the “Mole Brewery”, Timmermans brewery dates back to 1702 and is the world’s oldest existing Lambic brewery. Lambic beers are the product of “spontaneous fermentation” practised by only a handful of brewers. The beers are carefully matured and artfully blended, the sour beers sometimes sweetened with fruits.

Tasting Notes
Strawberry – Its aroma evokes the perfumes of a lovely summer’s day. Its strawberry flavour confirms the nose’s impression, without being over-sweet, and is enhanced by a real feeling of freshness, recalling those tiny green granules that are found around ripened strawberries.
Its taste is consistent and spreads very quickly throughout the mouth, finishing on a note that is fruity rather than sweet.
Accompaniments
Timmermans Strawberry is great with pannacotta, cheesecake and creamy cheeses.
