I have been reading a alot about lambics/sours and have become intrigued. Because of my locale, these beers are not easily available to me. I will however be on vacation where I will be able to try a few of these and have no idea what's good, bad or otherwise. I'm assuming I probably don't want to jump into a crazy funky lambic and be turned off before I even have a chance to acquire a taste. My plan is to start a 3 and 5 gallon solera some day with maybe roselare, and keep a steady flow, but need a starting point to base it off of.
1.So my question is what beers in particular would you recommend starting with?
2.In your opinion, is it better to add dregs from a single beer (like) Russian river bier de Sonoma or add dregs from multiple brands of the same style?
I love a good challenge, and have very good patience, so it wouldn't bother me to wait over a year for this to mature. I have more carboys than I need so basically I would like to start a project.
Thanks for any insight, advice, criticism, or anything else you want to comment. I'm a big boy, I can take it.
