__NOTOC__
== Description ==
Fill me In 1990, a beer group called the De Dolle Proever (“The Whacky Tasters”), led by Daniel “Sam” Croonen, posed this question to Jean Pierre Van Roy: “if you use sour cherries to make kriek, then obviously your final product is going to end up sour, but what if you use regular cherries?". As it turns out, the added sugars inthe sweet cherries led to a fruit lambic that was very sour.
== History / Other Notes ==
Fill me inHalf a keg of this beer was served at the club's holiday party. Technically this was the only appearance of a Kersenlambic. The remainder of the keg was blended with [[Cantillon Kriek]] and [[Cantillon Jonge Lambic|Jonge Lambic]] to create Kersengueuze which was bottled into unlabeled 750ml bottles. Additionally, fifty 1.5 liter magnums were made with a custom label designed by Joris Pattyn. The first 29 magnums were numbered, but the remaining 21 were not.
== Unsubstantiated Stories ==Fill me inBottles of Kersengueuze were never sold. Very limited numbers of 750ml and 1.5L bottles were given as gifts to club members and friends of Joris's.
