Oude Kriek Boon tasting notes
Oude Kriek Boon is a Fruit Lambic brewed with 400g of cherries per litre of 1 year Boon Lambic aged in oak casks. It is a beer dominated by the sour cherry character, with a lot of sweet and sour cherry flavour and hints of vinegar and berries. A very drinkable but still complex Fruit Lambic.
Fruity Lambic is a variety of Lambic often produced like Gueuze Lambic—by mixin one, two and three year old Lambics in the same bottle. Fruit is added halfway the aging process, so the yeast and the bacteria can ferment all the sugars from the fruit. Most traditional styles of fruit lambic are kriek (with cherries), framboise (with raspberries) and druivenlambik (with muscat grapes). The flavour of the fruit should be evident, coming in hand with a sour flavour. When young, the beer preserves its fruity taste, but when aged the lambic character becames more dominant.
