Subject: Bella-Vue Gueze?
Hello all. I've been lurking in this forum for a month or so. (I must
say the technical discussions are impressive and intimidating.) I've
been brewing beer for about 4 years and from some unknown reason have
become interested in brewing a plambic (well, the reason might be just
to show off at a local beer club meeting :^)).
One problem I have is that I have only tasted one lambic beer (El Paso
is a beer deprived desert town). The lambic I tried was Bella-Vue Gueze
lambic ale. My question is: Is this a good example of a lambic? It
differs greatly from some of descriptions of 'lactic sourness' I have
seen in this forum. This beer was sweet and estery (berry fruit came to
mind), very effervescent and a beautiful crystal clear amber color. For
some reason I expected a cloudy sour beer. I enjoyed the beer very
much, although at $4.50 a bottle I will not drink many.
Also, I have not seen mentioned the brett. and pedio. cultures carried
by Brewers Resource. Have folks succesfully used these cultures? Thanks
in advance.
