PX sherry barrel Kriek
This Oude Kriek was macerated with sour cherries for almost eleven months. The lambikken used while macerating were both one- and two-year old. We also used one-, two- and three-year old lambikken from (slightly peated) sherry barrels to blend the sour cherry lambik into a Kriek. By doing so, the weighted average age of this Kriek is a tad less than two-and-a-half years upon release. Final fruit intensity of 354 grams per litre of Kriek. 100% 3 Fonteinen.

11 September 2021. At Summer Belgian Beer Geek Gathering. Many thanks, Klaas & Liesbeth, cheers to the whole crew!
Season 19/20, No° 75. Hazy red, thin, pink head. Aroma of sour cherry, sherry, balsamico, wood, red grape. Taste has very sour cherry, plum, grape & grape peel, vinegar & lemon acid. Very acidic finish with woody tannins & sherry. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Nice Kriek with a 'twist' but no peat for me.

Thnx to 77ships ! Pours hazed pinkred. Small white head. Scent is intense, cherries - almost more like sweet cherries (kers) than sour ones (kriek). Taste is full, cherry, candy-like cherry aroma - yet not sweet. PX is fully lost to me (shame) , and so is the peat - untill the late aftertaste. Very decent kriek, but the barrel profile is very tuned down .
