Fun with Framboise


You have to hand it to the Belgians for breaking all of the "rules" of beer. They love to through in spices, fruit, whatever makes them happy at the moment. Lindemans Framboise is the poster child for Belgian fruit beers. It is a deliciously tart raspberry lambic that will make you pucker after your first sip.

Now you can enjoy this brew just as it is....or try something a little different. I happen to love it over ice cream. The tart, fruity, fizzy beer perfectly compliments smooth, sweet vanilla ice cream. Forget the root beer float, go for a real beer float.
