Fruit Lambic·Belgium·6.7% ABV·One of 37 Fruit Lambics in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Timmermans Oude Kriek's sour and fruity character. Cherries lead, with almond alongside: slightly stewed cherry and a note of fruit vinegar on the nose, then powerful cherry and almond on the palate, held in check by the lively acidity of old lambic. Finish fruity and powerful. Young and old lambics macerate on 400 g of whole cherries per litre, local Gorsem sour cherries, and referment in the bottle. 6.7 % ABV.
