Lambic Discussion Thread

Tough call. Two different beasts. Had them within an hour within an hour of each other at the brewery and had to call a doctor because my erection lasted more than four hours.

I get that you have a boner for still lambic, but I just didnt find the LH12 nearly as complex as the Vin Jaune. Both fantastic experiences, but I will probably say that LH12 is my least favorite of the cognac treatments (which by the way, the last vintage of 50N has really mellowed out).

I haven't had a solid pour of the newer batch of 50n in about a year, but it was already starting to find its place back then IMO. The cognac treatments are so different than anything the VJ barrel could offer so I don't like comparing the two in general.

I got you next time. You bring the LH12 and I will bring the phenylephrine for the priapism.

Are those words safe to Google?

Could buy two Eylenbosch Gueuze from 1963 for that price, if you were so inclined.

Or more than 18 bottles of Drie Fonteinen Geuze from 2015...and that's counting shipping for the 3F.

That's worse than secondary market prices.

2010 Special Blend has landed in Australia. $32 a bottle at one place.

2015 Cantillon Gueuze in 375 ml bottles up on BiaB.
Don't expect them to last long.

Is this what it has come to? The regular gueuze can't even stay in stock?

Regular Cantillon Gueuze and Kriek disappeared in like 5 minutes last time they went up on etre, right? I expect them to go as fast on BiaB.

God help me, I bought three. I hate myself. I hate beer.

I had to buy some De Dolle just to ease those pangs of self-hatred. Super srs.

I'm going to Cantillon tomorrow morning. Does anyone know what is available for on site consumption and of those which I should definitely get?

All of them, every one of them.

I'm only about two hours away from there. Plenty of chances

Well they've been up for over a day already so I guess they'll last at least that long.

I don't know if it is up to date, but there was a thread about this in the regional forums (I think).

Drink a Pineau and 50N, and get a pour of the straight unblended from the jug if you're still thirsty. Then take a magnum of classic home.

Incidentally it's Euro Beet Bloggers Conference in Brussels this weekend, so it might be busy... so go early.

Carignan was bottles on my birthday. What a bitch of a bottle. How good was it Compton25 ?

Well, if you're going anyway, please feel free to update this thread - thanks! The OCD lambic fans of TB thank you in advance.

Carignan was great, but I'd prefer St. Lam over it. Would love to try them side by side.

 

[andrewdrinks]

Okay.

 

[SeaWatchman]

Okay.

The Vat## series?

* something new… (more details on August 31st)

 

[NAPO]

Ugh, 2 years until I visit Cantillon for the first time.

 

[davey101]

This is awesome! I like it way more then any vintage of Hanssens OG I've had before.

I really want to try this since it seems to be floating around in a few different places.
