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.

Bottle from Tesco, Burnley, as Cuvee Brut. Cloudy dark cherry-red with an extremely thin head. Has an initial sweetened cherry taste, with a small sourness in its aftertaste. There’s plenty of aroma.

Marjamehun värinen, vaaleanpunainen vaahto. Tuoksussa kirsikkaa ja marjoja. Maku marjaisa, mutta ei liian makea. Yllättävän hyvä. Jatkoa: Pidemmän päälle turhan makea ja kirsikkainen jälkimaku.

33cl bottle from Marks & Spencer, Camberley. A deep cherry colour with a big dense cream head; sour cherry aroma with a touch of plum; intense, sharp and sour cherry taste at first, but mellowing somewhat, and developing some stewed plum sweetness later. Exactly what a sour fruit beer should taste like.

Nicely tart, yet still a bit sweet. plenty of cherry. Has a good woody flavor as well. Decent balance. Good stuff for warm days.

Szép nagy, hosszú, rózsaszínű hab. Barnába hajló rubin szín. Nagyon finom illata van, meggyes, fanyar, fűszeres. Nagyon fincsi meggyes, savanykás, fanyar, fűszeres, animális íz. Testes sör. Utóízét a savanykás meggy íz uralja, némi animális fűszerességgel.

Rødbrun farge med hvitt skum. Lukter coctailbær, sure kirsebær. Smaker surlig og godt med kullsyre. Syrlig preger avslutningen også.

Ripe cherries balanced w/some sour ones, black currant, black berries, cherry flavored hard candy. Sweet/sour blend, sweet is stronger but the balance is really good. Wonderful smooth mouthfeel, really creamy & well carbonated. Gueuzy texture. Nice.

Bottle. Nose is tart, cherry, back of the cupboard must, slight cheese. Taste is cherry, cherry syrup, vanilla, sugar, sweet almonds, bread, raspberry, wood, marzipan, very little sour or depth. It’s been years since I’ve troubled myself with a Liefmans as I’ve found them little better than alcopops in the main. This was as I remembered, sweet and shallow; I’m baffled by the warm reviews this has received from some on here.
