Kriek style sour aged on Stevnsbær sour cherries .
Inspired by the Belgian kriek style of golden sour beer aged on whole sour cherries. This beer combines a blend of two of our favourite golden sour base beers, both brewed with local Scottish barley, wheat and oats, and fermented with multiple Brettanomyces and bacteria strains.
We aged this base beer for two months on over 400kg of whole ‘Stevnsbær’ sour cherries, sourced from the orchards on the Frederiksdal estate used to produce award-winning Danish cherry wine. Known as the grapes of the North, these sour cherries are ideally suited to growing in the colder climbs of Scandinavia.

From tap at BrewDog Rotterdam. Bold tart and sour cherries with a little sweetness from the cherry. Bit oaky, red fruit. Long puckering sour finish, light sweet tones. Great.

Clear, dark red pour with a reddish, stable head. Aromas of loads of sour cherries, black currants and other dark berries. Taste is really well-rounded sour cherries, some apple, almond, bread. Really nice tart finish. Very nice.

Dark red colour with thin head. Aroma is super fruity. Lots of cherry and a general forest fruit feel. Starts with a bit of cherry pit but gets juicy and sour quickly. Feels very fresh and natural.
