Oude Kriek Boon is a truly traditional, spontaneously fermented Lambic beer. We make it by letting 400 grams of fresh cherries ferment with each litre of Lambic beer. We then bottle condition a blend of this Kriek Lambic and young Lambic to create an Oude Kriek. The high amount of cherries creates a very intense, yet mild cherry flavour.
As for all our Kriek beers, the cherries for Oude Kriek Boon are carefully harvested and optimally stored in our brewery's cold store.
The year on the bottle's neck label is the year the cherries were harvested.
