Belle Vue, Kriek

Belle Vue Fruit beers are classics in their own right. Their brewers start with complex Lambic beers and then add garden fresh, hand picked fruit for further seasoning and fermentation. Lambic of approximately 4 months old is used to prepare Belle Vue Kriek. 80 kilos of July ripened cherries are mixed with the Lambic in 650 litre oak barrels and left to mature for an additional 9 months before the Kriek is pronounced ready for bottling.

Belle Vue Gueuze is one of the most famous Lambics. It is blend of older and young Lambics, 5 different vintages are used and balanced to achieve the final outstanding flavor and sparkle before the beer is bottled, using methods identical to those of the vintners of Champagne. The bottles will remain racked and undisturbed for additional fermentation for a further 6 to 18 months before coming to full maturity.

The resulting brew?

A full bodied, golden beer, that achieves a perfect harmony of bitter, sweet and sour nuances.
