Lambic D’Haute Densité

Lambic - Traditional

The result is surprising. The beer is amber, without carbonation, and comes in at 9.1% ABV and 8° Plato residual sugar. It's close to a Barley Wine or an oxidized wine like Madeira, Sherry or Vin Jaune. Even more surprising is that when we forgot a half-empty bottle, th beer was still good when we tasted it....after 8 days. This beer will be poured for the first time next weekend in Portland (Maine) for The Festival organised by Shelton Brothers and 12% imports.

Tastes like a BW and is still. By itself is way too much but pairs well with a gueuze.

Wysoko procentowy lambiczek 🤯 W smaku niesamowicie ciekawe skrzyżowanie lambika z barley wine. Pyszne ale kieliszek w zupełności starczy.

Blown away. Sweet start with a sherry/Madeira raisiny middle and lovely dry finish that lingers. Not much carbonation which is not a criticism. This is fantastic.

Very low carbonation. Sweet up front with a semi dry finish. Drinks similar to a port or vin santo with a slight sourness

Very specific. Acid, tannic, quite hard to drink...

Verrassende wending. Heeft wat weg van een barleywine. Sherry, madeira. Iets zout, balsamico azijn-achtig. nootachtig en gedroogd fruit, vijgen.

Quite interesting. Vinous, like a fortified wine. Has the sourness you would expect from Cantillon. Reminds me very much of a tawny port with age.

Nauwelijks koolzuur, zuurtje, zoet, rood fruit, wat notig, sherry en madera achtige tonen. Bijzonder.

Wow - very interesting. Very complex flavors ranging from Mild tartness to Brett character to mild roast to some melanoidin like notes. Medium+ body.

Acidic funky prune and fig. Whisper of sour golden raisin and booze. Old oak backdrop. Definite port wine vibes. Dig it!

Plum and cherry notes, a touch of red wine, alcohol, moderate sourness.

Lots of "good" oxidation flavors (plum, cherry). Reminds me of an old Ale.
