Belgian Lambic

Belgian Lambic is a traditional, spontaneously fermented beer from Belgium's Pajottenland region. Unlike most beers that use cultivated yeast, Lambic relies on naturally occurring wild yeasts and bacteria from the environment, giving it a unique, complex flavor profile that includes tart, funky, fruity, and earthy notes. Typically aged for one to three years, it often features added ingredients like cherries or raspberries, creating varieties such as Framboise or Kriek. Its distinct production process and heritage make Lambic a celebrated example of artisanal brewing, appreciated for its depth, complexity, and connection to local traditions.
