This classy beer represents the perfect marriage between the fresh accents and slightly acidic flavour of the black cherries. Liefmans Kriek-Brut is a mixed fermentation beer, with every hectolitre containing up to 13 kilos of fruit! Liefmans Kriek-Brut is a perfect blend of Oud Bruin and pale beer aged on cherries. The beer is matured for 18 months, bringing out the very best of its intense flavour.

Gushing to rusty red-brown beer, clear, under a huge, dirty pink whipped eggwhite-like head, leaving shards of lace. Sweet cherries, cherrystones. Sweet, but smelling natural. Sweet-sourish. Again real fruit, but in the end a bit too sweet for its own good. Brown candi sugar. Very slick to oily MF. Good (too) good carbonation. Still a classic - but nothing will ever equal the draught Liefmans Kriek as poured @ Kulminator in days of yore.

Аромат в основе черешня, а точнее косточка, также есть нотки малины и ежевики, намеки на ягоды красной малины а также сено. Цвет странный и красивый, похож на темно коричневый с розовыми нотками очень глубокий как будто иллюзорно мутный, пенка маленькая но стойкая, кремовая. Вкус хороший, весьма карбонизированный, при этом тело среднее и вообще пиво питкое. Сначала чуть приторные нотки от как будто сока черешни, ощущаеться солод и нотки моченых яблок. При глотке кислинка, больше ягодная, появляться привкусы малины и ежевики. Послевкусие идет вполне долго, стойкая косточка от черешни а также спелый сок. Кислинки почти нет. Очень рад что снова топчик от этой пивоварни.
