Lambic Discussion Thread

This is also a new 50N as it is on Armagnac barrels and it’s ridiculously delicious, better than the last release of 50N imo.

This was true of all of the 50N that was sold online via the 3-Pack over the last month or so, correct? Lambic.info doesn't seem to be updated yet, but I guess it would be considered Batch 4.

Yeah, B4, but I might actually make a new page for it. I just scanned the label yesterday so it’ll get up there soon.

How are people so quick on the draw on these unannounced sales? I've missed every online Cantillon sale so far by at least an hour. Is it a matter of being lucky or am I missing a way of being notified?

I assume most of the people jumping on them have Facebook push notifications for Cantillon turned on, if nothing else.

I only knew about it because a friend sent out a message in a group convo. I looked and passed once I read the details.

I've succeeded exactly once, and it's because I happened to be on TB and got an alert to this thread which was a post with info that the sale was live, courtesy of MikeG ...

So in my case, pure luck (thanks to awesome assistance).

I think others do have scripts that notify you when a web page you're watching changes.

It's called having a 1 year old that wakes up every 90 mins throughout the night. You spend a lot of time on FB at 3:30am waiting for the little bastard to stop screaming his head off, and you see the Cantillon update by pure luck. Also helps to set Cantillon as "See first" in your newsfeed.

I always have a hard time finding these bottle sales from the Cantillon website. Anyone else have that issue? I usually have to find the direct link on their FB post. Seems like navigating to a bottle sale from their main page is impossible.

You should try it right now (starting from the main site) because it's fairly easy....

true dat.

Before bottles used to be sold through the webshop, maybe that was my issue.

 

[loldor]

Thanks all, better luck next time I guess.

I had the same issue the last couple of times. Their switch from offering the beer through their web shop to using billetweb seems to be the cause.

Off to try and trade for a new 50n4e. Should be super fun

 

[beerherder]

shot in the dark, but if any of y'all are in Brussels Friday and want to share bottles at 3F or Cantillon, drop me a message.

managed to sneak a quick stopover onto the back end of a business trip

Seems there's 1 in stock (just add to cart even though it says Brewery is OOS) if anyone is looking for the 3F decanter shipped to your door.

For whom it may concern, libbey makes a generic version and a 2-pack costs $35. If you throw me half the price that biab is asking for the official 3f decanter I will ship you a custom 1 of 1 decanter with finger painted 3f logo and a butt plug stopper (in your choice of color.)

Act fast, can only offer this to the first 60 people who contact me.

For those not interested in stakem's fancy pants hand painted decanter, Home Depot makes a beautiful orange 5 gallon bucket(may or may not be food safe) for under $5. I'll slap on a low resolution 3F logo sticker that was printed on my super janky Canon inkjet for the low LOW price of $9.99

I think my favorite part of this picture is that the liquid in the bottle is clearly visible and not pouring.

The spacing between 1 and 0 looks suspicious.

Yeah at least I didn't complain about kerning...

Yeah but you can’t blame him for not wanting to open a millenium and pour it into a bucket just to sell a few more decanters.

Take it to r/keming, you nerds.

looks like it was stored vertically...


















...based on the pour viscosity and Mercury in retrograde, at least

Eh, Ive blown 50€ on worse if not.

Easily.

Can’t someone just pay us for the ticket and get it themselves?
