Lindemans Kriek is a celebrated example of a traditional Belgian fruit Lambic. The foundation of this ale is a classic Lambic, a wheat beer brewed using spontaneous fermentation—relying on wild yeasts unique to Belgium's Zenne Valley, a method perfected over centuries. This young Lambic is then blended with fresh, whole sour Morello cherries (Kriek in Flemish) and aged in oak barrels. The resulting re-fermentation imparts a brilliant ruby color, a sharp effervescence, and an authentic, deeply refreshing cherry flavor that has secured its status as a global favorite.
This is a highly sessionable, complex fruit beer that transcends the typical ale category and makes an excellent aperitif.
Style: Fruit Lambic (Kriek)
Origin: Vlezenbeek, Belgium
ABV: Typically around 3.5% - 4.5% (Check specific bottle for exact ABV)
Volume: Commonly available in 750 ml bottles (ideal for sharing)
Color & Clarity: Brilliant, inviting ruby red with a delicate pink head.
Tasting Notes: Offers an initial surge of tart, authentic cherry flavor followed by a subtle almond note from the cherry pits. It finishes with the refreshing, soft acidity characteristic of a quality Lambic.
The balance of sweetness and acidity makes Lindemans Kriek incredibly versatile, pairing well across multiple courses:
Desserts: Excellent with rich dark chocolate, cherry tarts, or fruit salad.
Cheese: Complements creamy, soft cheeses like Brie, or savory goat cheese.
Savory: Cuts through the richness of duck, patés, and barbecue.
Lindemans Kriek is a vibrant, effervescent, and beautifully complex beer. It is often referred to as a "Champagne of Beers" due to its clarity and tart finish. Whether you are a craft beer connoisseur or simply looking for a unique, celebratory beverage, the Kriek is a perfect, time-honored choice.
