Pinky-brown in color with a pink head. A rich cherry aroma. Flavor is of tart cherries. Moderate carbonation with a good mouth-feel. |
| Description: |
Bacchus Kriekenbier is brewed using Bacchus Oudbruin as a base. Its sourness and the slight touch of caramel from the roasted malt are impressive features. Bacchus Kriekenbier has a beautiful balance between sweet and sour. In the nose you detect aromas of ripe krieken cherries, while in the background is the delicate sweet and sour, slightly wine-like character of the base beer, making for a vibrant aftertaste. It’s a zesty thirst-quencher. |
