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.

Red with a foamy, white head of modest duration. Artificial, syrupy cherry aroma. Taste is sweet the whole way through. Lightish body. Essentially, smells and tastes like cherry candy, or even cough syrup. Not my thing. Gave it to Tania, who enjoys the style.

Can, 0.50l. Aroma of cherries, berries and malt. Pours clear ruby color with thin quickly diminishing white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste is pretty one dimensional with sweet maltiness, faint caramel, sour cherries and some citrus. Light to medium body, slick texture and soft carbonation in palate. Seems quite artificial...
