Thanks for the reply Jamie! And, for the interesting info as well. I'll have to bring you up some really cool Belgians soon from the Boston market. I think you will be impressed. I miss you guys!

Thanks for writing this up. I have a couple on hold for me at a local store, but have not yet tasted it. From what I understand, this was named "Doesjel" b/c the fermentation actually got stuck, and never "woke up" again.

Everything you wrote about lambic/gueuze, above, mirrors my feelings. I'll keep checking in here from time to time. You have your friend, Peter T., to thank for my finding my way here for the first time.

cheers,
Brian

I love gueze, kriek and framboise. The only kind we tend to find here is the Lindemans which is adequate, but unexceptional. Gwyneth's favorite is the Belle-Vue which I find a bit mass produced, but it is consistent though I've never seen it here. We brought back a few bottles of Cantillon which I loved and gave the dregs to a home brewer friend of mine who cultured the lambic yeasts to make some good stuff himself. All of the lambics need to be blended because the open air fermentation makes it too variable to have usable consistency without blending. There is concern that so many breweries have closed down that there may not be enough yeast in the air to keep it up. The breweries don't clean up spilled beer or dust to try to maximize the yeast in the air. They also have to encourage the spreading of spiders to counter the beer flies since they cannot clean sufficiently.
