Blended aged Lambics from Belgium by Don Feinberg of Vanberg & DeWulf. Producded from 2011 to 2015.
Lambics are truly the “wines” of the beer world. With wine one speaks of “gout de Terroir” because the land so influences a wine’s flavor. With Lambics, one must speak of “gout de Tonneau SM“ because each cask (tonneau) produces a lambic that matures and tastes different. Blending these Tonneau is such an art that there exist independent Geuzestekkerij (blenders) who buy young Lambic then age and bottle it under their own name.
Lambickx™ is Vanberg & Famille’s brand of hand-selected and blended lambics. Every Lambic with the Lambickx™ name is made from casks personally tasted and chosen by Don Feinberg, one of the first importers of Belgian beer to America and founder of the first Belgian-only brewery in the U.S. Don chooses his Lambics for their complexity, brilliance and drinking excellence both by themselves and as exquisite accompaniments to food.
Barrel Type: 275- & 600-liter French Oak

C&C 750mL bottle shared by Kinz at the 19th Richmond Ratebeer Gathering. Wambeek/De Troch version. Pours a slightly hazy pale amber color with nearly no head. Very tart aroma, slight must, earth, pepper, mild caramel. The taste is tart, peppery notes, citrus, stone fruits, strawberries, faint caramel. Medium bodied. Nice beer.
