"Our Old style Kriek with cherries of the Schaarbeek variety is a variation of our Old Kriek. This beer is made with 100% organic Schaarbeek cherries, all grown ourselves. This type of cherries is becoming ever more rare, when they used to be omnipresent in the region for the production of Old Kriek. So we decided to start growing these ourselves on a couple of fields close to the brewery. The entire cherries are fermented in oaken barrels in lambic beer of at least one year old. After six months this transforms into Old Kriek with about 400 grams of cherries per liter of beer. Because of the second fermentation in the bottle, which carbonates the beer, you obtain a delicately soft taste and the distinctive foam head. A true delight for all senses with an harmonious balance between sweet and sour, and of course the added authenticity of the one and only Pajot kriek.

Bottled 12/10/2021."This kriekenlambik is the result of a maceration of sour cherries for more than eight months on young lambik, afterwards blended with some more soft lambik to balance it all out.

The final fruit intensity is 337 grams of sour cherries per litre of kriekenlambik. 100% 3 Fonteinen brewed lambik."

"Finished in an oak foeder for 5 months and after that an extra finish for 2 months in smaller oak barrel, this Oude Kriek is characterised by a strong oak presence. The world famous Stevnsbaer chéries form a pleasant, mellow fruitiness that is largely supported by oak and vanilla."

"In 2022 we macerated Gorsem cherries on 2 year old lambic and barrel aged it after 6 months of maceration for another year. In 2023 we did the same; maceration of Gorsem cherries on 2 year old lambic for 6 months. We blended these 2 cherry lambics together and added fresh Satureja herb to them."

"Kriek 2021 with Merlot grapes. During the 2021 cherry harvest, we processed 3 different varieties of cherries. This blend mainly contains Noordkriek and a small amount of Kelleris. This from local growers in the Antwerp region, a fruit region that has almost completely disappeared but has recently seen some new initiatives. The maturation took place in ex-Bourgogne and ex-Bordeaux casks. The Merlot we used is the barrel aged version of our Pet Bière 2021. After a period of 9 months in an ex-Bourgogne and ex-lambic barrel. The name of this beer was chosen just a few days before the sale, after a difficult period for many of us. 2022 will go down in history as a Bloedrood (bloody red)/gitzwart year. And also a tribute to the healthcare sector that has given blood, sweat and tears."
