Bockor Lambic Blending Seminar
The Bockor Brewery of Bellegem, Belgium, is an intriguing, historic and rare place. It's one of the few remaining breweries in the world to practice all three main fermentation styles: top (or ale), bottom (or lager) and spontaneous (or sour). In this seminar, Adam Schulte of Artisanal Imports will lead you through a tasting of the remarkable spontaneously-fermented sour beers of Bockor. You will taste five distinct blends of young (jong) and old (oude) lambic. Both beers are made from the same wort but one is spontaneously fermented and aged for 18 months in giant oaken barrels (foeders). Taste for yourself the effect that acidity has on your palate and experience beautiful aged lambic as it tastes straight from the barrel. The final beer in our tasting will be the exceptional Cuvée des Jacobins Rouge, Bockor's Flanders Sour Ale.
