John R An interesting and informative story about the famous culture around Belgian beer. Cheers! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/24 Full Review Leslie B What was once a dying art form, Lambic beer is now a growing industry with traditional family businesses and newcomers. This film tells a great story of the history, the people behind the beer and where Lambic is headed. A great watch for beer lovers and all people who appreciate great craftsmanship. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/24 Full Review Alastair P What a beautiful documentary! We are lucky to have been given this glimpse into the tradition of lambic brewing and blending as it stands today. Bottle Conditioned shares multiple lambic breweries' arcs through past, present and into the future. We take in the unique dramas of each producer, with their arrangements of family, partnership and vision. Lambic and gueuze are truly mysterious beers that when they arrive most gorgeous, their satisfaction stands resolute, matchless and not soon forgotten. Cheers, and I hope you enjoy the film as much as I did! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/23/23 Full Review Jeff F Fantastic film! Highly recommend for anyone that is into craft beer, natural fermentation and intimate storytelling. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
