/am i doing this right?

 

Omme Gangnam Style!

 

frambwahZZZZZ: there's an "e" after the "s", therefore it's NOT SILENT

 

You have to make sure to put on the French tab when you click for the audio, but this probably the best example so far. You got to know a little French to get it perfect.

 

I agree.
I call the historical figures Pliny with a short "I" and the beer Pliny with a long "I".
Pliny the beer is a brand, so it should be pronounced however the brewer wants it pronounced in my opinion.
I merely disagree with the pronunciation of the historical figure as "Ply-nee", as I have always heard it with a short "I" in an academic setting.

 

You avatar was destined for this post.

 

I was told at the Copenhagen Beer Celebration by a source whose credibility I am unsure of that Nøgne ø is pronounced NOUHG-NUH OUH.

That probably doesn't make much sense spelled out, I can't think of any words with the sound of the "ø" in English. It really isn't a sound the English language uses, hard to explain through text.

 

I like the English pronunciation on Google translate. (Cant-till-on) I don't think it's quite right though

 

If we want to have a real discussion about this stuff, and give advice on pronunciation without actually pronouncing things, we all need to learn this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Phonetic_Alphabet

Edit: plus, this is an IPA that a lot of non-beer drinkers are into.

 

This video should help with the pronunciation. Sort of...


I think it would be closer to Nug-ne Ooh

Edit: Or what Zach said.

 

Thats a big 10/4 there Rubber Duckie

Gueze was pronounced as GERZE by Michael Jackson at the tasting I was at.

 

This thread is confusing! this is the 5th pronounciation ive read about in the past week. Any Belgians on this site care to help us out?

 

and Ommegang is definately a short a not a long a.
this belgian video pronounces it. I think im going to trust a Beligian before anyone else.

 

Please help! De Struise makes one called Tsjeeses.

 

I'll add Maudite to the list. I've asked for it pronounced correctly and been stared at by people with a confused look.

 

this video is the only trust worthy source for the pronunciation of weihenstepan.
A German working for them clearly knows the way.

 

a brewer working for cantillon pronouncing the word. Clearly correct.

 

looks like geuze might have two pronunciations. It also looks like lambic has two pronunciations

 

Chernigivske?
Also is it actually supposed to be WHO GAR DEN like the packaging says? Either way Im gonna say HOE gar den.
