I also hold that lambics and monkeys share an attribute, but in my case that is "things I don't want in my mouth." Thus, I haven't looked too deply into it. I suspect, tho', that Unibroue's Quelle Que Chose is as close as you'll get. I had a cranberry fake-lambic that was made in the US, but as it tasted like it had been in someone previously, I wouldn't recommend it even if I remembered the name. I've spoken with the brewer at our local
favourite brew-pub, and he reveals that most breweries in North America view the Belgian yeasts as an infection (makes the beer taste not like Labatt's/Budwieser-- you know, GOOD), so unless they want to do ONLY Belgian styles (a la Unibroue) they won't do any.
Ah,
Gojira... *sigh* Just have to pray for a DVD release of the dis-Burred version.
