Kriek Lou Pepe

◎ Aussehen

Deep ruby red with a translucent body that catches light with a garnet luminosity. A modest white head forms on the pour and settles into a thin lacing that clings delicately to the glass walls. The carbonation is gentle, befitting a traditional lambic maceration.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with tart Schaerbeek cherry—simultaneously bright and dark—layered beneath a subtle wine-like complexity from two years of aging. Underlying notes of mild oak and fermented stone fruit emerge without sharpness, while a whisper of acidity signals the lambic's wild yeast character without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

Crisp entry of cherry tartness balanced against the dry, slightly tannic structure of the aged lambic base. Mid-palate unfolds with dark berry depth and a persistent sourness that remains refreshing rather than harsh. The 25 IBU provide just enough subtle bitterness to frame the fruit and prevent cloying sweetness.

◑ Abgang

A clean, medium-length finish that fades into lingering cherry notes and a gentle drying sensation. The aftertaste remains pleasantly fruited without residual sweetness.

Serviertemperatur 6–9°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
