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.

From tap. Sweet aroma with lots of cherry juice. The taste is a fine mix of sweet and sour. It seems a bit articifial, because cherry juice is used, and not whole cherries. A pleasant beer, but certainly not a classic, as it was in the 70's and 80's. In the mid 80's a pub in Breda one week per year served Liefmans kriek straight from the wooden cask. Re-rate: bottle. No head. Strong cherry aroma with some oak. Sweet and sour flavor with cherry juice and a bit of an alcohol burn. Full bodied and syrupy. Lovely beer.

(Bottle) Pours clear deep red with thin beige head. Lovely aroma - cherries mainly but with a lot more hard to identify. Medium body with nice fine carbonation. Great taste with excellent balance of tart and sweet - there’s lovely fruity tartness offset by some candy sweetness. It’s fruity, with a mix of fresh and cooked cherries. Again there’s a plenty of subtle complex as well - some yeasty, earthy and maybe funky notes. Really nice.
