Bacchus Kriek - Fruit beer

Bacchus was the first series of specialty beers at Van Honsebrouk Today, the Belgian brewery combines several series

The basic recipe for all three beers with the name Bacchus is a Flemish brown ale The so-called Vlaams Oud Bruin is a red-brown beer style that is almost comparable in character to wine This is due to the pronounced acidity that is typical of this type of beer, Many representatives of the variety are too sour for the untrained palate, but the Van Honsebrouk brewery has refined the recipe and rounded off the pointed acidity of the brew Now it brings a harmonious symbiosis of acidity, fruitiness, sweetness and tartness to the glass

For their Bacchus Kriek, the brewers have added cherries to this flavor profile The deep red summer fruit goes wonderfully with the aroma of the Oud Bruin and combines creamy caramel, gently roasted malt and crisp acidity with the juicy sweetness of freshly harvested cherries In addition to the unmistakable aroma, the fruits also contribute a wonderful color: Bacchus Kriek flows into the glass in a bright shade of red and is adorned with a mixed-pored head of pale pink foam

Cherry lovers watch out, this brew will quench your thirst for beer, refresh you and bring a full load of cherries to your tongue!
