My mistake. I mistook the “past brews” section for their bottled list. Rose de Gambrinus, incidentally is a fruited lambic, not a straight gueuze.

The lambic isn’t great but it made me try a Belgian fruit kriek lambic (lindemans raspberry or black cherry lambic) which are incredible

I don’t know if I’d describe the MS Framboise as “terrible”. Not to your taste, perhaps, but as far as fruit beers go, Mort Subite is quite well regarded. Having sampled dozens and dozens of lambics and...

Just because beer and food pairings are a lot of fun for me, I’ll throw out a few more suggestions and comments. A fruit lambic would be a great addition to the meal, with either the first or second course. Cantillon makes...

), and to a lesser extent other fruits such as current, peach, etc. Lambics are first fermented, then tons of fruit added, referneted, then strained and clarified, and then refermented again in the bottle. They are very complex...

and I believe it is currently on tap at Piece. On the topic of fruit beers, one of the most extraordinary I have ever had is Hanssens Oudbeitje, a bone dry lambic with an ethereal strawberry presence. Not every bottle is as good...

that are too bitter. He likes the fruit lambics and hefs, but not so much the stouts and Belgians I’ve brought in. Anybody in Austin know how I can get some of Live Oak’s fabulous Hef? Anyway, give me your picks for...

Lambics are a traditional type of Beligian beer which use a number of different types of fruits. People have been making Banana lambics, among other fruit flavors, for some time. Here’s an example:...

Bocks, Wits, Fruit beers, lambics (with easter brunch..sort of a bad pun, really) Geueze (sp?), American Wheats and any Italian beers. Don’t know why ANY italian works. I just do.

Thanks Bob Mac. A beer and cheese event can end on a sweet note too. Imperial Stouts with a chocolate pudding cake (coffee cheescake and sticky toffee pudding can work very well too depending on the sweetness of the beer), Fruit...

slightly different flavors. Haansens Artisinaal, Cantillon, Boon, Oud Beersel, Girardin, and Drei Fonteinen are what you’re likely to find if you look. These are wheat-based beers, with fruit sometimes added. The Lindemans...

Well the easy answer is the Hanssens cask Lambics. But also the De Regenboog 't Smisje Grande Reserve. And I wonder what this Ommegang "Fruit Funk" is all about?

. Sour Flemish reds, anything Trappist (esp. Trappist Rochefort 10, but it’s rare). Any of the fruit lambics (framboise, kriek) would be cool to have handy as well (though doesn’t need to be at the same joint). I know...

Upon the suggestion of a Whole Foods employee I tried using a cherry lambic, which is a sort of fruit-flavored belgian beer. Since the recipe only calls for a dash of kirsch, I noticed no difference.
