History / Other Notes

Bzart Oude Kriek underwent the "Méthode Traditionnelle" (or "Méthode Chamepnoise" in Champagne terms) in which a riddling and disgorgement process takes place. This process, performed by Guy Geunis, gives the beer a sparkling wine type finish. The beer is a blend of Oud Beersel Oude Lambiek and the award winning 2008 vintage of Oude Beersel Oude Kriek Vieille.[2]
