Timmermans Griotteke Bourbon Barrel Aged

    GRIOTTEKE is both traditional and contemporary! Schaerbeek cherries, which had gone by the wayside for a few decades because they were so rare and difficult to harvest, have been rediscovered by lambic breweries such as the Timmermans brewery because of its bright red juice and tart-sweet taste. We give these Schaerbeek cherries six months to macerate in one of our young lambics. We then mix this cherry lambic with a lambic that has aged for 19 weeks in bourbon barrels. The final touch? The secondary fermentation in the bottle, which starts as soon as this majestic black bottle is corked.

    Aroma

    Fresh cherries with a hint of vanilla and caramel, obtained by maturing in wooden bourbon barrels.

    Taste and mouthfeel

    The lively and refreshing sourness of the Schaarbeek cherries is immediately perceived on the palate. The full and firm structure, enriched by the bourbon, gives Griotteke its distinctive authenticity as Oude Schaarbeekse Kriek.

    WHERE WILD YEAST GROWS.

    “Lambic will never perish. Let’s give it quality and lambic, will always be the queen of beers.” Albert Vossen, January 1929
