Lambic Discussion Thread

[andrewcschultz]

I fell like a dumbass posting my reviews on this page when there is no other traffic here, but I'm not sure this kind of thing is sufficiently casual to go on the other lambic thread. Maybe posting tasting notes is just dead and I'm living in 2018.

I still very much appreciate a good writeup. And a good Boon bottle. The lambic thread on the other site with people reminding themselves to casually be casual is about the furthest thing from a casual you can get anyhow.

If it makes you feel better I come and check out your posts each time. Not sure why this thread is so dead. But I guess I'm part of the problem because I don't contribute. So, with that...

Anybody have thoughts on the latest 3F lambic pack that was sold? I didn't buy it (yet), but I'll be honest, I'm a little hesitant with the pine needles in the Wilder. Anybody here tried it already? Is the pine as overpowering as I imagine it being?

Looks like the leftover Golden and Schaarbeekse packs (that were replaced by the Wilder pack) on the 3F webshop are being sold by the bottle on Etre's webshop now. I was hoping to grab a pack to fill a box, but not at the markup for individual bottles.

man, I'm just over here drinking these nine dollar Mariage Parfait shelfies idgaf

Anyone else receive the 3F pack with Schaarbeekse and new GB and notice the ABV? I was surprised to see the Schaarbeekse around 9% and the GB at 8% Usually these sit around 6-7% Anyone know why these batches are so much stronger?

So will the non-screen printed 3F bottles have a more substantial paper label on the front? Have they said why they are moving away from the screen printed bottles?

From what I've seen (previewed ), the general design seems like it will be the same (no papyrus coming back ), just not screen printed.

No reimbursements.

No reimbursements.

They are straight up saying dispute the charge with your credit card provider.

Looks like Jean put up, what appears to be, 75cl bottles of Chouke on MBC for 150/each. Not a bad price if you are in the states and can only get ahold of one through secondary.

Hate I missed the bottles of chouke. Would have loved to see how that ages

I love it. The market for "rare" lambic has been and will continue to be completely upended by covid. People who were holding onto the few 375ml bottles of Chouke that made it out of Pistolet and asking the world for them just saw the floor drop out from under them, and there are definitely going to be more things like that coming in the coming weeks.
