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.

Different.Tastes more like a cherry cider than beer though. Nice strong tarty taste, abit oaky. A good summer drink

Pretty light and easy drinking. As is often the case with supermarket versions, this is quite meek, with soft cherries and overall sweet fruitiness set against a mild tartness that is complimentary but overall pretty subtle flavours across the board

Somehow never checked this in? Initially sweet and juicy with black cherry, actually slightly syrupy. This shifts to a slightly sour, fairly sharp and tart cherry and light balsamic vinegar, it also gets slightly dry. Massively drinkable summer beer.

Bright scarlet pour & pink head, sharp cherry aroma doesn’t disappoint, sweet fruity diluted wine like entrance becomes creamy, cherry dominant finish has a caramel tinge whilst fruit fades, easy drinking & very quaffable - a good start to tonight!

Zoet/zuur kriek bier. Smaakt echt naar kersen, beetje te zoet voor mij

If cherry drops were liquidised.. Hard to tell it’s actually beer & alcoholic as it’s so tarty and sweet!

Probably one of the best fruit lambics I've had! My wife loved it and she's not a beer drinker so that says a lot. Well done!

Nice Cherry flavour. By the pint would be too much, but its a nice welcome break from the beers and ales I'd normally drink.

Скорее карамельно и орехово, чем вишнёво. Насыщенный вкус, чуть терпкий, с кислинкой на финише.
