I hated reading this book.
''Les Memoirs de Jef Lambic'' is a publication of the memoirs written by Jef Lambic, son of a lambic brewer of at Brouwerij De Keersmaeker, later known as Mort Subite. The manuscript, written around the turn of the 20th century, provides an overview of Brussels lambic culture as a social drink.  The author also discusses the various pieces of equipment and paraphernalia used in turn of the century breweries.  Interesting sections in this book include a discussion of lambic cafes as "chic", the invasion of "brown beers", and an explanation of what ''Zwanze'' is in a cultural context. This book was published after the death of Jef Lambic sometime in the late 1940's or early 1950's.
