I pour purplish red with a creamy pink foam that releases an aroma thick with ripe currants, sharp oak, and wild yeast. From those notes, you can probably already guess – I'm a Lambic made with blackcurrants. "Cassis" is French for blackcurrants, a classic Belgian favorite cherished for centuries as a key ingredient in liquors.

Like most Lambics, I am spontaneously fermented, then aged in oak casks, which imparts a fine, complex fruit character. I am renowned worldwide as a sweet and sour Belgian beer, a bewitching elixir with a mouthwatering hit of juicy, dark fruits. Indulging in me is akin to savoring an adult version of the finest Ribena, where the intertwining flavors will seduce your palate and leave you longing for another forbidden sip.
