Lambicdom

With the help of the distributor for which I work - Legends, Ltd. - I conducted a lambic tasting (and judging) yesterday at Grand Cru in Baltimore, MD.

I brought in 12 judges, split into 2 groups of 6. To expand the experience beyond only beer geekiness, I invited participants from the 3 ambits of beer, food, and wine.

• Lew Bryson, Ale Street News: writer, beer
• Dave Butcher, Country Vintner: distributor, wine
• Thomas Cizauskas, Legends, Ltd.: distributor, beer
