Kasteel Brouwerij Vanhonsebrouck St-Louis Premium Kriek

Kasteel Brouwerij Vanhonsebrouck Premium Kriek

Kriek Lambic St-Louis (Cherry) For at least six months, the pulp of morello cherries (kriek) matures in the gueuze-lambic. The stones produce a subtle taste of almond. Under the experienced eye of the cellar master, the young kriek is blended with the old lambic to develop its full flavour.

Product DetailsSt-Louis Premium Kriek is brewed on a lambic base complemented with a proportion of St-Louis Kriek Fondation and the juice of Oblacinska cherries that have been steeped in gueuze for six months. The result is a thirst-quencher with a low alcohol content. This sweet cherry beer tastes delicious on a sunny day and is a perfect beer for anyone who doesn’t like strong beers.

BREWERY INFO
Kasteel BrourwerijThere was a time when Lambic, a style of beer created through spontaneous fermentation using wild yeasts in the open air, was only brewed in the immediate vicinity of Brussels. And yet, in 1957, our brewery took up the challenge of brewing the first West Flanders Lambic. This was a thorn in the side of many Brussels Lambic brewers, who tried to undermine St-Louis. They claimed it was impossible to brew Lambic some 100 kilometres out of Brussels. Nevertheless, we still brew Lambic here today. Not in Brussels, but in Izegem, where the wild yeasts grow.
