The Belgian Brewer Cherry 330ml
Deep crimson colour, rich fresh cherries, and a deliciously dry and slightly sour finish
Made to the same stringent specifications as The Belgian Brewer’s legendary Raspberry beer, this Cherry beer really shows what can be achieved when you don’t cut corners on costs! The beer spends a minimum of two weeks in the fermenters soaking up all the colour and flavour from whole cherries. This brewing method achieves a truly fabulous deep crimson colour, rich fresh cherries on the nose, and a deliciously dry and slightly sour finish on the palate. Nik Lemmens is an ex-pat Belgian now based in Bishops Stortford, who is making sensational Belgian-style beers here in England. All The Belgian Brewer’s beers are brewed to traditional Belgian methods – a time consuming process which adds to the complex flavours in the beers. He uses top quality ingredients, with no artificial colours or preservatives. All the beers are suitable for vegetarians and vegans, as unlike some breweries, he does not use any animal derivatives to ‘clear’ the beer. Because of this, they are often naturally cloudy, and will have natural yeast sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Each step of the process is scrutinised to ensure quality and consistency. The beers will not leave the brewery unless Nik and his team are 100% satisfied with the taste.
