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.

Z jednej strony fajne rustykalne brety i wisnie (soczkowe, nie pestkowe), z drugiej migdalowa slodkosc (sporo slodkosci), z trzeciej kwasek.

Dark red with little white head. Aroma is sour cherries, some pips, and oak, bonbon, lemonade. Taste is sour cherries and rotten oak bitterness. Finish is some rather ugly bitter syrup. Drinkable and almost watery, big bubbled in the mouth. Ok

At Bruges Beer Fest 2017. Pours clear dark red with a foamy white head that leaves lacing. The aroma contains cherry and marzipan. It tastes medium to heavy sweet and light sour. Medium body, fizzy carbonation, quenching. A good Kriek.

Brown color with a minimal and quickly diminishing off-white head. Aroma is sourish with cherry notes. Flavor is slightly sour, red fruits in a good proportion , mainly cherries and berries. Light sourness in the final. Flat carbonation.

Bottle, 0.33l. Pours cloudy ruby brown with thin quickly diminishing tan-like head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of cherries, must, tannins, vinegar and funk. Taste starts with sweet and sour cherry, following is mild malty and tart fruity, while finish is mild bitter. Medium body, slick texture and lively carbonation in palate. Surprisingly sweet for a blend of sour browns. Minus and minus equals plus?

Bottle at home. Pours reddish brown with big beige head. Aroma of overripe cherries, sherry, amaretto, almonds, fruit bubblegum, dark dried fruits, leather, horse stable, glue. Taste sweet with a lingering sourness. Cherry finish and a slightly bitter aftertaste.

From a 330ml bottle on 3/1/2017. Pours an opaque reddy brown with not much head. The aroma is fruity and spritzy, with strawberry and raspberry most prominent. It’s all sweet berries and cherries up front, with just a barest hint of bitterness to counter. The palate is quite thick and syrupy, with average to lively carbonation. Not necessarily my sort of beer, but well made and refreshing.

750 mL bottle, labelled Cuvee Brut and bottled in 2012, shared at our housewarming party. Pours clear ruby brown, with a small, bubbly head. The nose is black cherries, cedar, black pepper, light balsamic, and apple. Sweet and fruity up front, with a subtle and smooth sour flavor. Light body, effervescent, smooth, and velvety. This beer is simply excellent! Great balanced flavor, and pristine palate.
