3F Oude Kriek

← 3 Fonteinen

Description

3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek is a traditional kriek lambic released annually in several batches by the brewery. It is produced by macerating cherries, including the pits, in young lambic. After bottling, it is stored in a warm room for at least four months to help with secondary fermentation in the bottle.[1] Oude Kriek is released in 37,5cl and 75cl bottles and is currently labeled as 6% ABV, though older labels show that it was once listed at 5% ABV.

History / Other Notes

3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek is one of two flagship beers in the brewery's portfolio. The brewery has been bottling it since at least the 1990s, with a variety of labels documented below. After the Thermostat Incident, which essentially cooked over 80,000 bottles of lambic causing some of them to explode, an unspecified number of Oude Kriek bottles survived. These were bottled on March 31, 2009 and became known as "Hot Cherry" bottles when they began to circulate in the beer community.
