uncarbonated sour lambic-style ales on tap and in 1.5-liter bag-in-boxes. Meh. I’m good.

Can I just just skip to the part where I throw my money away? How do they define trend? This seems more like a parachute pants situation.

Seems like an interesting experiment to me. You guys don't like lambic-style beers I take it?

[Robert]

Geuze, Faro, Kriek, Framboos... all well carbonated, have enjoyed them.  Not sure I'd like them without that quality.  Hard to imagine.

[narcout]

I think it sounds alright; I'd try it.

[homoeccentricus]

Trust me, it's good. I've also used simple lambic to add fruit myself.

Correction, it cán be good, for instance when it's kriek from Girardin

A friend brought beer a flat single barrel lambic (or was it gueuze?) from Belgium in a wine-in-a-box bladder.  I could see why sour beers are often blended.  Like homoeccentricus said, would be easy to add fruit or blend in a younger sour.

Geuze is by definition Iambic that is bottled and quite carbonated, no?

Yes. Gueuze does not come in a box.

Now, where did I put that u I'm missing?  Apparently I've been misspelling "gueuze."  My apologies to Belgians everywhere.  Well, to Frank at least.

No, it's geuze in Dutch and gueuze in French. I normally use the Dutch version, I simply thought most English people use the French version. Hey, now I'm confused too

I too like the poetic rhythms of beer, though I prefer the stronger, accentual rhythms--much more carbonated than iambic pentameter....

Maybe I'll manage dactylic hexameter in a post someday.
