WHAT DOES LAMBIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Lambic

Lambic

Lambic is a type of beer brewed traditionally in the Pajottenland region of Belgium and in Brussels itself at the Cantillon Brewery and museum. Lambic is now mainly consumed after refermentation, resulting in derived beers such as Gueuze or Kriek lambic. Unlike conventional ales and lagers, which are fermented by carefully cultivated strains of brewer's yeasts, lambic beer is produced by spontaneous fermentation: it is exposed to the wild yeasts and bacteria that are said to be native to the Zenne valley, in which Brussels lies. It is this unusual process which gives the beer its distinctive flavour: dry, vinous, and cidery, usually with a sour aftertaste.

Definition of Lambic in the English dictionary

The definition of Lambic in the dictionary is a type of Belgian beer brewed with raw wheat and wild yeast in wooden casks, and fermented for at least a year.
