Description
3 Fonteinen Aardbei / Kriek is a lambic macerated with strawberries and cherries. It is bottled in 750 mL format and listed as 6.3% ABV.
History / Other Notes
The process to make Aardbei / Kriek is that of a double maceration. First, organic strawberries from Ferme Framboos were added to the lambic to macerate in the barrel for a period of time followed by cherries after the initial strawberry maceration had finished. The first commercial release of Aardbei / Kriek came in March of 2020 after it was moved out of Twist of Fate series following five different experiments of strawberry and cherry macerations.

| 01/05/2021 | 750 mL | 7th blend of the 2020-21 season. For this Aardbei/Kriek, we blended three quarters of a foeder-matured strawberry lambik (the one we bottled straight away for the 6th blend of this season) and one quarter of a kriekenlambik that macerated for 10 months. The weighted average maceration period is almost four months. The final fruit intensity is at 600 grams of red fruits per litre of Aardbei/Kriek. We bottled it without adding any additional lambik. |
