Very interesting! I was in Brussels for a day last week, and went out
with a non-beer-fanatic net.pal...we stopped in at Mort Subite, and I
ordered a Gueuze, which he turned up his nose at, preferring the sweeter
Faro. He found the Gueuze too sour, and Mort Subite is nowhere -near-
Cantillon! (Kind of a nice apple-y tartness IMHO). My ears burned at
this heresy, of course! :^)
He is from East Flanders, so perhaps he just isn't that fond of lambics
as a whole. He loves Rodenbach and Oerbier FWIW...
Just my $0.02...
