St. Louis Kriek Fond Tradition Beer Review

From Brouwerij Van Honsebrouck comes the St. Louis KriekFond Tradition, a Kriek Lambic that at 6.5% ABV was a cherry delight for me in the bottle. This Kriekenbier is a blend of old and young Lambics with the added presence of actual Krieken cherries and not juices or any other manufactured sweetness. For me, there was a nice dryness to the beer that played against its tartness. There was also a decent sweetness and acidity that came into play. This for me was a fine sour ale indeed, and it is one that I would recommend to any true sour ale connoisseur. Check out the video to see and hear more of my thoughts about this one, and if you have had it then leave a comment below to let me know what you thought of this ale too.
