How To Blend Lambic Beer?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- How do you blend Lambic beer? Producers have a brewery full of barrels to select from, each with their own characteristic.
They will sample from their barrels, select those to contribute to their Gueuze, dedicate others to fruit beers, and tag other barrels for continued aging.
➡️ Blending became popular because the spontaneous fermentation of the Lambic wort can have such unpredictable results.
I was lucky to have Gert Christiaens from Oud Beersel explain how blenders uses their senses to determine which casks will blend best with others, and in which percentages, to create the final product.
What I learned is that It’s an art, more than a science, utilizing the blender’s eyes, nose and taste buds to create a beer that is made in accordance with time-honored traditions.

🎥 Welcome to the official TH-cam Channel of Beer, Wine & Spirits 🎥
Hi, I’m Jeff Bradford. My passion for beer, wine, and spirits ignited an urge to investigate the stories behind the labels.
🌏 So, in 2018, I sold everything I owned to travel the world.
My objective: to learn the secrets of brewers, winemakers, and distillers.
From Switzerland to Jalisco, I set out to determine why their process yields extraordinary results.
With each stop on the map, I reveal time-honored traditions, cultural influences, and industry practices that help you discover the soul of these incredible products.
As a former member of the US military, I learn by doing.
You will see me harvesting grapes in South Africa, pouring beer at Oktoberfest, and chopping agave in Tequila.
➡️ My channel is dedicated to the passionate, hardworking people who make the beverages associated with our favorite celebrations, special events and amazing moments with those we love.
Join me as I find the next fascinating story about your favorite Beer, Wine, and Spirits.
Cheers!

#JeffBradford #Lambic #Beer
As someone who loves sour beers from Belgium this is a suuuuper interesting video. Great job Jeff! Keep it up!
Can’t thank you enough. I learned so much from Gert and I was learning while filming. I’m grateful to share it with everyone and I hope the lambic series gives people a better perspective on lambic and some insight into the amazing people who make it.
@@drinkdestinations I hope you get the chance to travel to Belgium soon again (I guess this was recorded way back, pre covid). Even though Belgium has a lot of different kinds of beer and breweries for you to visit - I would at least (lol) love to see you visiting breweries that produces flemish red ale and flemish old brown. They are not lambic - but the process with "souring" it is pretty close, even though they're different kinds of beers. It's a type of sour beer that I think is in the shadow of lambic and doesn't get the recognition outside Belgium as it deserves.
Example of breweries that produce said beers: Liefmans, Rodenbach, Verhaeghe (who makes Duchesse de Bourgogne) and Omer Vander Ghinste (who makes Cuvee des Jacobins).
I was just talking with Verhaeghe about an episode a few weeks ago. As soon as I’m able to travel this will be one episode I look forward to filming. I absolutely love rodenbach grand cru and Dutches. Thanks for sharing. -Jeff
@@drinkdestinations Heck yeah!
very informative
You had the patience to listen to every word of the wine-maker,no interruptions.
Stay healthy,keep us entertained with more videos.
I really appreciate the comment and glad you liked the episode. Still learning so much about interviewing, but the biggest thing is I’m actually learning while filming so I’m listening more than speaking. Cheers and hope all is well during these crazy times. -Jeff
The look on your face when you tasted the blend. I'm green with envy
Hahahahahha yeah one of my favorite experiences was learning/ making lambic!
Finally!!! A new video is out! Thanks Jeff!
Hahahahaha I know brother. Had to switch up to a new episode once a month due to all the travel restrictions.
Fantastic content again and probably the most clear and concise explanation of how an oude gueuze is made that I've ever heard. I look forward to visiting this brewery once travel restrictions are relaxed. My favourite Oude Beersel lambic has to be the Krieklambik using the champagne method.
Can’t thank you enough and it was so easy to learn about blending from Gert. I learned so much from him and glad to share it. I appreciate the comment and I’m really proud of how the whole lambic series came out. Cheers, -Jeff
Love this channel.
Really awesome to hear Thanks so much! Any stories you would like to see in the future? Cheers, -Jeff
It's really hard to be host without interrupt the guest, good for you Jeff
Hahahah thanks brother, I’m also learning, so literally your seeing class in session and filming as I’m learning about all this. It’s very hard not too. -Jeff
❤️🤗 THANKS JEFF …YOU LEARNED SOMETHING AND WE LEARNED SOMETHING AND IT PEAKS OUR CURIOSITY ABOUT HOW MANY MORE COMBINATIONS ARE POSSIBLE…INFINITY AND BEYOND 😉😍😍😍
So glad to hear! I film these episodes as I’m learning as well and I’m grateful to share what I learn and the stories I come across around the globe with everyone.
Your videos are great, can’t wait to see you’re progression. Cheers from Cali🍻
I Really appreciate it. 🙏🙏🙏 cheers 🍻-Jeff
Jeff your chanel is awesome!
Thank for your work
I am working as the bartender in small craft bar in west-Siberia region so..
Hello from Russia! )
This is so badass. Really great to connect with people from all over the world. Glad you enjoy the channel and I hope to come to Russo one day and discuss the beer scene there. Cheers, -Jeff
Great content Jeff, thanks. Any idea what year the foudres were filled?
@@andrewbayley1689 I really appreciate it. It vary between foudres as some where filled a year or two. I don’t remember any being over 3 - 4 years, but it’s been a while since I filmed.
Love this video!!👍 🍺
Thanks so much and appreciate the comment. Had a blast learning from Gert about blending and glad to be able to share what I learned. Cheers, -Jeff
Love you beer wine and spirits
Right back at ya!!!
#notificationsquad!!!
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Fasinating!
Really glad you enjoyed the episode. I learned so much from Gert and Oud Beersel is making some amazing lambic beers.
@@drinkdestinations Indeed! I even didn't knew this beer existed before this video! They're on my shopping list now, thanks!
Damn I am here a little early today. Hope you are doing great Jeff.
I’m doing great and hope all is well during these crazy times. As always, can’t thank you enough for the support. 🙏🙏🙏-Jeff
gahd I love kriek so much
I definitely agree with you 💯💯💯👍🏻👍🏻
Great episode brother. Was any one of the different aged lambics better than the mix of the different ages? Cheers. Anthony
Anthony, thanks so much my man!! they all bring a certain complexity but the older lambic had acidity and super complex in flavor. I could drink that by itself. If you ever make it to belgium they will have young and old lambics to try which is such a great experience. I think Gert does a great job in explaining the differences in the video and learned so much from him. Cheers and thanks for taking time to comment, -Jeff
Yess...Jeff, U uplode Video,..heheheh
Hahahahahhaa I know, unfortunately travel restrictions have canceled over 10 episodes so we had to go to one new episode a month.
@@drinkdestinations I will be a loyal audience, I'm waiting for the next episode ... Try to explain something new from the drink you visited in the area...SEMANGAT Jeff !!!
Обалденный видос. Но вот эта реднекская привычка сидеть в помещении, не снимая папахи, - ну, как пингвин, - право что, а?
I always wear a hat. Hahahahha love the comment and never thought of it as redneck, but I can see why other cultures get offended by this.
@@drinkdestinations Thank you for not being offended by my possible rudeness, dude. When your sense of humor is just in its place, any hat makes no harm, lol.
@@vlagavulvin3847 hahahahha cheers 👊🏻
@@drinkdestinations 👊🏻
💣
WHAT HAS JEFF BEEN DOING…lately 🤷♂️💚💚💚
Making alcohol and just finished filming Mezcal episodes
@@drinkdestinations 🤗👍😎LOOKING FORWARD 👀 TO SEEING IT ‼️💚💚💚
🥂
Cheers 🥂
I can't help but think this guy is just maggot drunk the entire day. Walking around the brewery tasting every beer, constantly has a glass of beer in his hand, always tasting. I feel sorry for his liver.
Which guy?
@@drinkdestinations the brewer
@@thegingerpowerranger gotcha! Yeah it’s interesting most brewers, winemakers, distillers I interview are around it so much that it’s actually the opposite. Most brewers like whiskey, most whiskey distillers like beer. It’s weird man, not saying there are some that drink daily and livers are hurting but for the most part people in the industry drink with intention. Salud from Mexico!
