COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Please note the age of the sample you are reviewing when entering your rating. While many factors determine whether you have had "Jonge" or "Oude" Lambik, a general rule of thumb is to enter 1 year-old or older lambik under "De Cam Oude Lambiek" and anything less than 6 months-old under "De Cam Jonge Lambiek".

For those between 6 and 12 months of age, you should take in to consideration the character of the lambik. Samples presenting themselves as hazy/cloudy, with some head-formation and residual sugar should be entered as "Jonge Lambik", while those that are drier, higher in clarity and with little/no head formation should be entered as "Oude Lambik".

Very smooth, very nice. Almost like something of a soda-pop, but not unenjoyable at all.

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

MrChopin (2065) - Baltimore, Maryland, USA - JUL 16, 2011
Nutty gold, no head. Lightly acetic nose has a blast of tangerine and dusty hay. Flavor is watery, muted grains, light plant stalk and faint tangerine. Dry with low carbonation, it’s so empty.
