hopIQ found 10 beers with the same sour and fruity character as Kriek De Ranke. Kriek De Ranke is an unsweetened cherry beer of mixed fermentation. Old Flemish ale matured in oak is blended with lambic from the Senne valley and steeped on 25 kilos of sour cherries per hectolitre, then left to age. The result pours a deep, slightly hazy brick red. The nose brings tart morello, stone-fruit kernel, earthy funk and a light touch of wood. On the palate the full fruit flavour meets bright acidity, lemony tartness and a dry, thirst-quenching finish, with gentle oak notes from the barrel ageing in the background. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
