I tend to watch/listen to these videos while I do chores around the house and today I decided to have a soda while folding laundry and the Mel Gibson joke got me especially that delivery. Almost spat out my soda all over the clean clothes lol thankfully I was able to turn my head. Great video, guys. I love spontaneously fermented beers. They're beautiful. (I also know the heartache of buying some corked lambics and being like "oh yeah... Where's the corkscrew?")

Great video chaps! Discovered Mills in the House of Trembling Madness in York a few years back. Had a few of their bottles since then, all of which have been stunning.

@jeremyvincent195 3 года назад

Great vid as always guys, thanks. I'm a homebrewer obsessed with Belgian beers amongst the many. Love lambic as a style, as appreciate the complexity it brings. Now I know there are some good examples in the UK, great :)

Burning sky are just incredible 😍

@oliverhemmings1978 3 года назад

Great video, I love these styles of beer, I have a few knocking around and next time the sun comes out I'm cracking them open.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

So! Who in your part of the world is making spontaneous three--year blends - and does it taste markedly different from the original Lambics?

@taney12345 3 года назад

Have you guys been following Crossover Blendery in Hertfordshire? I have just got a bottle of their “Skimming Stone” which has plums in. I don’t know whether to drink or age... 🤪

@lachlancrombie422 3 года назад

Van Dieman Brewing based in Tasmania, Australia do a great 3 year blend, as well as fruited spontaneous blends. All home grown malted barley/wheat, hops and fruit.

@timgranzow3256 3 года назад

The Referend Bier Blendery in my hometown in New Jersey consistently churns out stellar spontaneously fermented brews!! Definitely a must grab if you ever see any while in the States!

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

We have been watching with interest. Yet to grab a bottle but will definitely do so soon

@richharper8159 3 года назад

That Today when fresh was just divine. Can't wait to try the second bottle! Loving what the UK has been putting out in terms of mixed fermentation / wild beers.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

I still have a bottle too! Going to sit on it til 18 months which is when I think most geuze peak.

@lukasjager2085 3 года назад

You guys kind of jinxed it when you made that joke about the beer geeks and the cork :D Cheers from Germany!

Need to do a burning sky and mill brewing documentary’s. Be amazing, great vid guys. Looking forward to the new book too.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

We 100% intend to

lol I shouted mills cork outloud. very nice video.

@2002chrisking 3 года назад

Great sign off, "Here's to beer that tastes like where it's from!" Great to hear about beer that embraces its local character and flavour. Beer doesn't have to be identical clones of a particular style - there's something exciting about opening something unique that tells you a story about where it's from or how it's made.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

100%

@britishteapower 3 года назад

Loved this. Would be great to see a video on the new wave of wild breweries - LEP, crossover, evensong,holy goat..etc maybe even deya’s sour output too? Gotta love Mills but videos like this will just make it harder to get bottles!

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

Cheers Robbie - have you seen our videos on Little Earth and Yonder from 2019?

@lachlancrombie422 3 года назад

I bloody love learning about Lambic/Spontaneous brewing! Got to be the most exciting style of beer (IMO) so much so I've welded up a 40L Stainless Steel coolship that I'm going to do some home brew batches and leave out overnight at my cousins farm under trees, near bee hives etc and see what those little bacteria/yeast cells come up with! (Based in Aus so going into cooler night's now)

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

Wow amazing! Let us know how it turns out!

@jorispattyn9690 2 года назад

These beers indeed don't taste exactly like PaYottenland lambic, but that does not take any merit away from them. As you said, they taste as from their terroir. A word I missed in both lambic videos is "mals", which roughly translates to mild, even when its original meaning is 'tender'. That is what lambicbrewers and gueuzeblenders are aiming at, whilst a lot of foreign spontaneous beers - especially those from the USA and Scandinavia tend to go outright for hard acidity. Having said that, I had great spontaneous beers from Eire, Czechia, and the UK - including MIlls, which are really great in what they do.

‘Petrichor’ is the word for that wet-tarmac-in-the-Sun smell.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

NO WAY! Awesome to know!

@BanjoStu 3 года назад

Superb knowledge. 👏

@kevinpayne3482 3 года назад

Great video guys as usual, to me lambic is a process not a location. So from allagash to our friends in Belgium it all counts. Cheers!

@boijorzee 3 года назад

It's really cool that the local bacteria have such an impact on flavor.

@jonathang.5092 3 года назад

You've done it again! Now I have to go out and try these. If I can find any of them here in Ireland.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

Look up Land and Labour (a side project of the head brewer at Galway Bay) if you cant - their first three year blend is nearly out!

Always a stock of bottles and cans on their webshop.

@MichaelAndersen_DK 3 года назад

I was wondering where Wild Beer Co was in all this, but as the video was about to end, lo and behold: An image with Wild Beer Co where Johnny is quaffing a Coolship 2020. And also having some troubles with opening the bottle, so nothing new about that ;)

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

I am out of practice because cans took over the world.

@davidellis6468 3 года назад

what about naming Lambic's that aren't from the Lambic region feroce piscine style? Got a nice ring to it and won't piss off the lambic brewers.

@stevemcguire7 3 года назад

Since the wort looks a bit purple around it, I'm guessing there's fruit in the bags! Though Johnny did say it smelled floral so maybe it's hibiscus or something. I'm thinking it would be a good way to introduce some native yeasts and bacteria to the wort.

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

Nothing so flavourful but there is a native yeast factor for sure.

@simonread4307 3 года назад

I absolutely adored that Mills. My favourite beer I’ve had from them. Their corks are notoriously bad though!

@TheCraftBeerChannel 3 года назад

Well that makes me feel like less of a fool.

@marc-antoinev.-quintin117 2 года назад

I know it's not exactly accurate, but there's a beer merchant in my area that colloquially call "british lambics" Old Ales. Thoughts?

@TheCraftBeerChannel 2 года назад

Haha well yeah historically he is right that old ale would have been mixed ferm but lambic is a VERY different brewing process to how those old ales would have been made
