The Belgian Cantillon Kriek is a blend of lambics and sour cherries - 200 g of cherries per litre of beer. The resulting beer has a slightly acidic taste of red fruit complemented with subtle almond flavours. Kriek brings out its maximum “fruitiness” when drunk young. With age the lambic will take the upper hand, but this is at the expense of the fruit component.
Our sour cherries, which are certified organic, come from Turkey and are blended with lambic that is an average 20 months old. Sour cherries have a very pronounced taste, so it is necessary to select a lambic that has enough character so that it will be a good match for the fruit. After soaking for two to three months, the lambic has extracted the full colours, fragrances and flavours of the sour cherries. At that point it is blended with one-year-old lambic, which contributes the sugars necessary for secondary fermentation in the bottle.
