The lambic beers are the spontaneously-fermented traditional beers of the
Senne valley, and vos ("foxy") lambics are relatively young examples, sharp
and often extreme. They tend to be sour, with the type of sourness
determined by the balance of lactic and acetic acids, and highly complex in
flavor and aroma. Served from the cask in specialty cafes. I love the
traditional lambics, but am not wild about the pasteurized
fruit-syrup-flavored things that are more widely available.
