""The 2023 edition of this natural and sparkling sour cherry Lambic beer, born from the meeting of two glorious traditions, the Traditional Method for sparkling wines and spontaneous fermentation for Lambic beers. Oud Beersel cherry lambic is drawn in the bottle with the addition of the liqueur de tirage, which consists of sparkling wine yeast and sugar for secondary fermentation. The beer then ages for fourteen months in the bottle before being finished according to the "traditional method". This process allows the development of fine carbon dioxide which is trapped in the bottle and which makes the Lambic sparkling. The application of riddling and disgorging eliminates the yeasts present in the bottle. No added sugars by adding an expedition liqueur. The result is a BRUT and sparkling fruit lambic beer with an impressive palette of flavors."

"First-time release. Instead of ' regular' Lambic, Grape Lambic (Lambic matured on Furmint and Harslevelu grapes) was used as the base for this beer. Otherwise, the same steps were followed as for the Bzart 2023, i.e. addition of 'liqueur de tirage', then 'remuage' and 'dégorgement', and no addition of 'liqueur d'expédition'."

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #93. Bottled on 28/07/2023. "For this Oude Kriek, we macerated sour cherries for a full year and a few days on three-, fourand five-year old lambik before blending with some more three-year old lambik. As a result, the weighted average age of this blend clocks at more than 40 months. The final fruit intensity is 295 grams of sour cherries per litre of Kriek. 100% 3 Fonteinen."

40kg of sour cherries per 100 liters of kriek.

Label might a bit damaged due to the long cellaring

One of the first bottlings of the Oude Kriek with Schaerbeekse sour cherries. The beer is tasting amazing right now, very fruity and acidity is tamed.

Pack Containing 2 bottles from Pellicle: 50/50/50/ ("This cider captures exactly how we wanted our cider to taste from the cider. This blend contains 50% of our favorite apple variety: Pomme d'Or, giving backbone and astringency to final result. The other 50% contains 50% of cider aged in old Calvados barrels and 50% cider aged in old Marsala barrels. The latter two ciders add complex vinous notes, while also giving the balance this cider deserves. Who chose to make this cider slightly sparkling, to fully highlight its layers.") and Spiced Fenugreek ("A lambic blend containing 1, 2 and 3 year old lambic from 4 different breweries. During our holiday last year in the south of France, we took home some of the best apricots and peaches we ever came across. After macerating them on the different lambics, we aged the beer for a couple more months. A few days prior to botteling we added fenugreek herb to it. This herb imparts a specific herbal and curry-like character. Interestingly, fenugreek powder can be used to fight mildew in the vineyard.")

Pack Containing 2 bottles from Pellicle: Oxaal Kriek ("One of our earliest blends was a sparkling full rhubarb wine. For some reason we stopped making this type of wine. However we still had 2 barrels we made back in 2022. In the year after that we blended the wine with skins of our beloved Gorsem cherries. After 1 year of ageing, we decided to bottle it and leave them for another year. A sparkling fruit pet nat if you will, with aside from rhubarb and cherry, notes of roses, almond and cinammon.") and Mira d'Or Omija ("A lambic blend containing 1, 2 and 3 year old lambic from 5 different breweries. On our search for the best fruit, we went to the Elzas region for fully ripe mirabelle plums. The region of Lorraine is famous for it, which is why we decided to buy handpicked biologically grown fruit from there. After a semi-carbonic maceration of 2 months, we added the 1 to 3 year old lambic to the fruit. After refermentation was done, we took the mirabelle lambic, backblended with some more young lambic. To this particular blend we also added a lambic on which Omija or 5 flavor berry was macerated. As the name suggests, it gives the 5 base flavors we can perceive: sour, sweet, salty, bitter & umami. It has notes of rosehip, pepper and citrus.")

Pack Containing 2 bottles from Pellicle: Ultra Violet ("We are big red beetroot fans. We also realize it's a an acquired taste for some people. To make this blend as accessible as possible, we started by making a 100% red beetroot wine one year ago. We then went looking for the perfect barrels of cider to accompany this beetroot wine with it. The final result has a wicked red/purple color & a nice fizz. It boasts red beetroot, cassis and wine.") and Mira d'Or Vanilla ("A lambic blend containing 1, 2 and 3 year old lambic from 5 different breweries.

To this particular blend we also added fresh vanilla beans. As Mexico is the country where vanilla originated from, we took some of the best and freshest vanilla beans home during our holiday on the Yucatàn peninsula last year.")

"A harmonious blend of our traditional krieken lambic with a natural wine made from Muscat Bleu from Wijndomein Hoenshof. The Muscat grapes underwent a three-day cold maceration, followed by gentle pressing, spontaneous fermentation, and aging in cuve. The result is an elegant interplay of subtle spiciness and a vinous, fruity depth."

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #106. Bottled on 08/11/2023. "For this organic Oude Kriek, we macerated sour cherries for almost 8 months on stainless steel. The lambikken used for maceration and blending originated from three different barrels and nine different brews. The lambikken were one- and two-year old lambikken, rendering the weighted average age of the blend to more than 14 month on the moment of bottling. The final fruit intensity is 342 grams of sour cherries per litre of Kriek. All cereals were sourced locally. 100% 3 Fonteinen."

"Kri-Vino was born from the encounter between two worlds: that of fruit wine and that of traditional lambic. We blend 70% cherry wine, made from three varieties of cherries, with 30% aged lambic matured in bourbon barrels. Note: Each bottle is unique, reflecting the year, the terroir, and the sunshine. Flavors vary from year to year, making each vintage impossible to replicate exactly."
