The Brewery: The Lindemans family has brewed since 1822, in Vlezenbeek, South-west of Brussels.
Origin: To offset the lambic acidity, some decided to add sugar to it. Thus Faro Lambic was born. Until the 19th century, Faro Lambic was very prevalent in the Brussels region. Today, Faro Lambic is the perfect beer for recovering after physical exertion. It is the favourite beverage of amateur cyclists!

LINDEMANS FARO 75CL
Pleasantly flavoured, fruity and on the sweet side.

Refreshing and sweet
Tastes of apples, almost like an English cider. Although it is sweet, it is not overpowering and you could drink a few glasses at a go.
