Lambic Discussion Thread

One bottle of CR in the car for the next week. Current temp 110deg

Be careful with lambic & hot cars! Took a bottle home the other day, had to stop by a friend on the way home, took longer than expected. When I jumped in the car, the cork was half way out:

Really stepped on it to make it in time and then BOOM.

Obv drank the rest

TIL cars in Belgium have lambic baskets in the doors.

Your car's door pocket functions great as a lambic basket.

If they were scissor doors you could just pour from the door...wait, are they scissor doors?

yeah, except it's a little bit hard to lift the car at a 45 degrees level to pour the beer

Am I the only one that doesn't get excited about blabaer?

Am I the only one that doesn't get excited about blabaer?

I don't, mainly because I know there is approximately a 0.0001% chance I will get it. If I could, I would be excited.

It's good but absolutely not worth the price of admission.

The recent "price hike" (or ask hike) on St Lam has got me real bummed out

If only it was limited to Cantillon.

 

[LukeAleTime]

Yes, yes, let the hate flow through you. Cantillon are overrated and expensive these days. Everybody out the pool.

I'd rather let the Blabaer flow through me, but alas.

eh i wouldn't go that far i love their seasonal stuff, but anything beyond that i wouldn't even know where to begin. stuff like 50n or blab is too rich for my blood, maybe i'll try them one day but i'm not holding my breath.

*raises hand*

Been wanting to try for a few years and meager trade attempts yielded squat.

Had the '12 - '15 vertical in Copenhagen at Himmergeit?. It was good, but underwhelming compared to lots of other great stuff I had over there on the trip ('05 Viggy). There has been more memorable blueberry american wild ale saison lambics.

 

[Padraig]

Blabaer seemed to be an afterthought for most people when I was in Himmer over CBC week. The kind of thing you scroll past on that menu.

2015 was tasty though.

 

[user 308679]

I don't get it. It's lambic. It's blueberries. What's the problem?

Granted it doesn't have Fermier or Flora in the name so obviously it's not God tier, but it's quite a tasty beverage.

I can't believe I'm defending a fruited Cantillon. Has the world gone completely mad?

 

[lazerviking]

No, it's just not better than St Lam, Fou, LPK and so on. But since it's harder to acquire, there's folks that put it down.

michael is playing bad cop, so I'll play good cop today on the chance it wasn't a typo.

Bilberries, they're bilberries.

Yes, I know that, but apparently my iPhone spell checker does not. Stupid American phone.

 

[2plums4one]

I can get about 15 375's of fresh RdG for what it takes to get the bilberry madness beer. Not too worried about landing it at this point.
