The ’raw material’ of the De Cam products, available from tap in their pub and given in stone jars, as was custom for flat lambic two centuries ago. Made from wort coming from Girardin and 3 Fonteinen, apparently. A refreshing, fruity lambic, obviously without head or carbonation, with spicy and milky notes and bitter, thirst-quenching finish. It’s a shame flat lambic has been reduced to folklore and has to be artificially kept alive, I could have this - or any other one - any day.

On tap at the blender. It pours slightly unclear, golden in color and without head. Vinegar, lemon, leather and some barnyard in the aroma. The flavor is slightly vinegar-ish, with a caramel flavor tending towards butterscotch in the end. That probably doesn’t sound too good, but it was a really nice lambic, especially the aroma. It’s dry, tart and flat on the palate. Certainly a beer I’d like to have more of. 110501

Draught at De Cam. Under 12 months old. Deep golden yellow, few bubbles. Aroma of sour cherry and vanilla. Taste is sour throughout, acidic, and very dry late. No dust or must. Nice enough.

Hazy body. Amber-orange colour. No head. Nose of wine, grapes and flowers. Lightly sweet, lightly acidic initial flavour which is very fruity. Lightly sweet finish. According to me, this is a superb lambiek. As a matter of fact, I do not think this needs a lot of blending, pour it into bottles and deliver us a magnificent product!
