Kriek Boon

Lambic - Kriek

For this speciality, we use old and young lambic beer that has aged in our oak casks. When the lambic is 6 months old, we add 25% black cherries. This provokes the second fermentation. We then clarify, filter and bottle it. The cherries and young lambic create a red beer that is both natural and fresh, with an absolutely unforgettable sweet and sour taste. This is kriek as it should be, with nothing but real cherries and lambic. There is no place for artificial colourings or flavourings.

Verging on a red wine nose, this is all Vimto crossed with cherry cola, almonds, and a cheesecake base. Coats the teeth, but still a 4.6.

Dark ruby red pour with a fine white head, sweet fermented cherry aroma, bursting with sour cherry flavour a dry tart finish

Late from thanksgiving. This is a perfect beer to pair with traditional turkey dinner. Starts sweet with tons of dark cherry aroma and flavor. Finishes with some tartness that makes it clean and dry. Well balanced sweet-tart, better than cranberry sauce.

Blod lambic, med en let lyserød skum. dejlig duft af kirsebær og flora, med kraftig smag af kirsebær. Dejlig øl, kunne dog godt bruge endnu mere smag af kirsebær.

A gorgeous cherry colour with slight red head and good carbonation. Masses of cherry aroma, smells tart too. Big sours flavours plus a big cherry hit. Smooth mouthfeel, creamy, lovely carbonation. Very nice.

Nice color and light sweetness to match the tart pop. Medium body and tasty.

Named in honour of the mighty David Boon, this was always going to be a banger. Big cherry boom bordering on the maraschino vibe, but not quite there. Thanks Penny for saving this all these years! (2017)

Plenty of fruit flavours. Not especially sour, but hints of sherbet. Really good recommendation.

Smaker først litt vin med bobbler, så får man følelsen av øl. Kan nok passe godt til sjokolade (desserter/retter)
