Canadian Lambic-style beer to be called “Niambic”
If all goes well, the brewers will end up with 800 l of wild sour beer, a wholly unique flavour more tart than sour, crisp and often fruity. They’ll name it “Niambic” (McOustra says you can call a beer lambic only if it was brewed in that region of Belgium). Plans are under way for next year’s wild brew at the same vineyard. “In a few years we can start blending the different vintages, while still maintaining the authentic localness of it.”
