Talk about a dead digest :)
At least this prompted me to talk about the lambic style's I judged in
the first round in Chicago last weekend. We were judging around the
Goose Island bottling line and I bet they didnt know what we were
evaluating so close to their system :)
The calibration beer turned out to be Cantillion Kriek which was a very
nice way to start out. Many of the beers were much more sour than the
Cantillion - I mean eye-waterin' throat burnin' sour. I thought I could
take any level of sourness, until then. Several had incredibly powerful
enteric/fecal notes which overwhelmed the fruit. There were a few with
nice horseyness, and in general it looks like real fruit is being used
rather than extracts.
Anybody make any of the other first round judgings for lambics?
