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.

Review based on the BJCP2008 guidelines (style 20). Bottle 75 cl - batch 03 010974 AROMA: sweet and sour aroma of cherries and cellar like aromas (barrel, woody, musty). no hop aromas discernible. APPEARANCE: brownish ruby color (from aging) and translucid. thin moussy head of a dark ivory color with low retention. TASTE: sweet and tartaric flavour of cherries mixed with cellar notes (barrel, woody). low bitterness with a semi-dry finish. PALATE: thin body with low carbonation. OVERALL: a not so bad cherry Cuvee.
