I'm surprised it took him this long to show up.





Oh wait...

There sure are a lot of lambics these days. I see a bunch of homebrewers making them, I have to wonder what makes them decide to call it a lambic?

Can I just throw some lacto and brett in a beer and call it a lambic? I'm going to. I might make a lambic stout this weekend.

I call mine Lambics because I use the same wheat/malt base, aged hops and I cultured my yeast from unblended lambics. Not really a lambic but tastes damn close and ZFG.

I love you man, but don't you use DME? You're like the poster child for not calling homebrew lambic.

Friend found 2008 sticker Lou Pepes turfing it up in a small town chain store in NZ for $24 nzd (so like $18 USD or something).

I don't even know how.

I'm lazy I know I don't even try to hide it.

Also I use LME as it's cheaper.

No judgement here, I do a turbid mash with Wheaties.

Pro-Tip: Use Wheat-Ums or other generic brand for cost savings and more rustics.


Seriously.


Do that.


Frosted is the best.

How dare you make fun of the god-tier liquid known as LAMBIC. Lambic is serious biz...didn't you know?

Will probably turn out better than those OWA bottles TBH.

Surprised no one has ever brought up the idea of doing an official TB.com lambic blend similar to the bourbon barrel picks.

Buy a few lambic boxes online>blend by committee or have blending contest with voting for winner>age a small portion on fruit>have one of the talented homebrewers on here bottle it up>sell TB goozie and TB fruit lambic>profit........

Wouldn't that fall under sale of homebrew, therefore BATFE jurisdiction, ergo federal-ass pounding charges?

then we'll all pitch in on what goes into it and the bottles will be free =]

Most lambic producers don't take kindly to this sort of thing and actively discourage it. That's the reason why you can no longer buy Cantillon or 3F lambic in bags or other containers anymore. People were/are blending it at home and selling it for profit.

Or do some (more) schmoozing with Armand, Pierre and/or JVR to make the "unblended" lambic/goozie version of the 4 Roses TB bourbon.

Cuvée.Info is something we'd really like to do someday.

Bourlambic? I'd drink it.

 

[GetchaPull]

Well, a coovie certainly tugs my bobber, but I was referring to doing a TB lambic/g(u)euze.

 

[Pneill3161]

Just go in with me. The bags are the expensive part, the rest is easy plus I've got about 10 gal of my own ready to blend as the jonge.

I can offer my services as a blender/taste tester .

Understood, makes sense. Remove the "profit" part of my post and replace with "everyone chips in together and prebuys the lambic". So no selling of the bottles like skrip suggested. Although no Loon or 3F in this imaginary blend = sadface.
