Lindemans Kriek Lambic Beer 250ml
Only
$5.99
Commercial Description:
In order to obtain a beer like no other, we have been adding whole sour cherries to our lambic for generations. It all started with a meeting with American importer Charles Finkel in the 1970s where he convinced us to export our old kriek to the United States by boat. What we had not thought of is that the movement of the waves would reactivate the fermentation process and cause the corks to pop during the trip. To prevent that from happening, we therefore developed an alternative production method for our kriek - by using fresh unsweetened cherry filtrate which we blend with lambic that is at least one year old before fermenting and macerating for up to 3 days and pasteurising the whole batch.
Due to the use of filtrate and pasteurisation, this kriek is sweeter and fruitier with the flavour of freshly picked cherries. Its sharp and full-bodied flavour gives way to a perfect balance between sweet and sour.
