Description
3 Fonteinen Schaerbeekse Kriek is a special Oude Kriek bottling made with young lambic and wild Belgian Schaerbeekse cherries. The lambic and cherries are aged together for four months before bottling. Though 3 Fonteinen's official website lists the ABV as 8%, all labels read 6%. Schaerbeekse Kriek is bottled in 75cl bottles and is available both in Europe and North America.
History / Other Notes
The brewery notes on their website that the production of this beer is often driven by the amount of Schaerbeekse cherries that can be sourced from local residents during the growing season. The Schaerbeek Kriek cherries come from a tree that grows in the wild which is becoming increasingly scarce.[1]
Unsubstantiated Stories
There are unconfirmed reports that newer batches of Schaerbeekse Kriek will start being released in 37,5cl bottles. As of 2014, this has not yet happened.
