| Liefmans Cuvee Brut | |
| A Sour Ale brewed by Liefmans (Moortgat)Oudenaarde, Belgium. This Kriek is made with a completely different method from Kreik Lambic. It starts with old brown beer which is macerated with fresh whole cherries in shallow, horizontal tanks (every 100 liters brown beer holds 13 kg of cherries). Then it matures for about 1 year, afterwards it is blended with both Oud Bruin and Goudenband of different ages. The result is a well balanced sour and sweet Kriek of great complexity. ABV 6.0% | |

| Review | I like the bottle, paper wrapped and corked. Pours a hazy red with a nice off white head. Aroma of soar fruits and some oaks. Flavors of sweet and soar cherries, spices, oak and some sugar candy. Low in carbonation and with a creamy taste. Very easy to drink and enjoyable. |
