Brewing a beer style from the Zenne valley in Emelgem? St-Louis Kriek Lambic proves that it is possible! This cherry beer is made on a lambic base and contains the juice of Oblacinska cherries that have been steeped in gueuze for six months. This specific preparation results in a fresh beer with the sweet taste of cherries. This cherry beer tastes mainly sweet with a hint of sourness from the fruit.

Keg at Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield - Red body, pink head. Nose a bit artificial cherry, but really packs a punch. Tart, fresh and lively0

250 ml can. Aroma is odd, smells like olive oil, with a touch of artifical cherry, Wow, this is sweet, sickeningly sweet, and very cloying. Kinda on the oily side. Tastes like cherry juice, and very very artifical.

Bottle at home. Aroma of sweet artificial cherry, vague wooden notes, sugar, sweetener. Flavour is sugary sweet and vaguely tart. Not my kind of Kriek.

Bottle. Red color. Aroma and taste: sweet, but sour, drunken cherry aroma, some lambic tones, commercial version of lambic.

En fait je crois qu'il ne faut pas que j'attende grand-chose des Krieks. D'autant plus que je vois que l'utilisation d'aspartame se répand très largement. Et ce n'est pas les 15 % de cerise fièrement indiqués sur la bouteille qui y changeront quelque chose. Pour être juste, ce n'est pas la plus mauvaise que j'ai pu essayer. Mais on reste sur des arômes de cerise qui font plus artificiels que naturels et avec un sucre toujours trop poussé. La très légère acidité le contrebalance toutefois légèrement. Pas de complexité toutefois pour une Kriek qui est très loin d’être exceptionnelle.

Mørk rød klar med rosa skum. Lukter mandelkjærnepudding med rød saus. Lett. Fruktig. Smaker kirsebær og mandler, middels lang.

Djupt rödfärgad vätska med rosafärgat finbubbligt skumlock. Arom av körsbär och mandel. Maltig sötma med änne mer smak av körsbärs. Mjuk och len munkänsla. Söt men läskande.
