I'll have to agree with you. I like most of Sam Adams' products, but they are really off the mark with the Cranberry Lambic. It's like they wanted to be creative by brewing a lambic, but only went halfway. I think they tried to be more consumer friendly and really tone down the sourness of a true lambic so it wouldn't be too offensive to the typical american palate. Instead they made a watered-down pseudo lambic that doesn't even taste like they used a Brettanomyces yeast strain. I'd stick to a traditional lambic from Cantillon or Boon, or if you like something sweeter go with a fruit lambic from Lindemans.

how does Framboise rate? that's pretty much my only experience with a lambic...

Amen Brotha. Which is why I've never brewed a lambic at home - I'm afraid I'll contaminate my whole brewery and never be able to brew anything but lambics.

Ummm... yeah, I'm pretty sure the general consensus is that once you use equipment to make lambic... that's what it's for.

Had a dude walk into my winery once and ask if I carried Mother of Vinegar (a somewhat reasonable question as I carry supplies, too I guess) But I just asked him if he thought I was crazy.

I offered to have some shipped directly to his house in the end.

It's very sweet for a lambic and I think the Belgians look down at this beer as an "Americanized lambic". I like my fruit lambics to be more on the sour side but I think the Lindemans Pomme is okay since it emphasizes green apple tartness.

EDIT: I assume you meant the Lindemans Framboise pictured in the post below, and not another brewery's Framboise.

Drank a lot of cheap beer in college - Milwaukee's Best, Natural Light - but there was one beer that we actually threw out the last few bottles. At $1.49 a six it seemed like a good idea, but...no.

Wow I never met anyone who drank wash water after cleaning the bathroom floor and toilet before. :biggrin:

Thanks BB, I knew that was going to get a comment after writing it. :biggrin:

I made the mistake of buying a 12 pack of green light - ONCE!

I since switched to Buckeye Beer (Anderson's sells it). Much better than wash water too. :) Have you tried it yet?

Is that you doing a cannon ball into the tub?
