Faro

Faro beer was originally produced from a blend of lambic and light, freshly brewed beer. Brown sugar was added just prior to serving. Modern variants of Faro still use brown sugar and lambic, but the beer is not always a light beer. It is bottled, sweetened, and pasteurized, preventing refermentation in the bottle.
Historically, Faro beers had a low ABV of approximately 2-3%. Today's Faro beers usually have a stronger alcohol content, at approximately 4-6%. It is commonly spiced with herbs and spices, orange peels or coriander. Modern Faro are sweet, with limited lambic character.
Faro beers are a somewhat niche range, mainly produced by Belgian lambic breweries such as Brouwerij Lindemans.
