Guide to Beer Types & Classification : Types of Beer: Bellvue Kriek

[tranceaddictallnight]

1. wrong glass type.

2. terrible pour

3. terrible kriek (much better ones for better prices)

4. lambics are not lagers, they are not bottom fermented, nor are they ales, they are spontaneously fermented. they are lambics, period.

5. lambics should be served between 45-50 degrees.

6. it's not "cork on the top", it's cork and cask.

Drinking beer cold doesn't release all its flavours.

@o2dazone A beer has to also have a substantial head. If you poured beer on an angle in Europe, like u do in America, you will get your hands chopped off by all bystanders.

get the appropriate glassware mate, not a becks glass

What is this guy babbling about? There are a lot of beers, that you shouldn't drink cold, especially darker beers, since they develop a lot more flavor at temperatures between 50 and 60° F. Some beers don't need to be stored in the fridge, you can store them in a cellar and age them like red wine, for example all the trappist beers.

"Beer expert"... my ass!

lambics are easy to store in the fridge. it is great because it doesn't matter if you lay it on its belly or set it upright because they do not put yeast in the bottle due to its spontaneous fermentation.

My initial impressions of this beer were that it was crisp, tart and refreshing. The cherry comes through strongly, but it was the very epitomy of cherry flavour, and was highly welcomed by a cherry lover such as myself.

By the end of our light meal, the beer had warmed slightly and gone a little flat, to the point where it took on a new flavour, more like a wine than a beer.

In short, if you like the taste of cherries you'll love this beer, just drink it cold and drink it quick.

"Molero cheery"?? It's Morello!

I tried this beer once at Belgian bar/bistro in Auckland. After I ordered it, the friend I was dining with informed me "oh by the way, that's a ladie's beer".

[hobbitsarecool]

It sort of is a woman's beer. If you want a more manly cherry beer try a kasteel rouge.

[meghanwagstaff]

good job.

[FiannaFail10]

Someone needs to kick this guy right in the cunt. What a pussy. Don't make it too obvious that you are looking down at the bar to read notes.

[jugularIV]

this man is clueless when it comes to beer and brewing techniques... most beer should be consumed at cellar temp. (48-55 degrees F)

[malrubius]

A "lambic lager" beer? "For a person who doesn't like ale or lager"?  I don't think this guys knows what the hell he's talking about.

[hyperm0d]

malbruius, I agree that he does not seem to know much but since krieks are made with wild yeast there is both top- and bottom-feeding yeast in it, therefore it can have a taste of both an ale an lager.

hooooouff

[onionofdeath]

that fruitcake sucks at pouring beer

[AlkalineLoris]

Lmfao... i wonder if Bellevue Kriek are sponsors of Expert Village. :P

[popham06]

that guy likes his pussy cold and all natural.

[AjaOki]

Not all beer is supposed to be cold. The colder something is, the less you can taste it, and yeah, his pouring technique is pretty lacking.

I also don't find that beer is that refreshing. It removes water from your body.

And calling this a chick beer? Sexist much?

[TheEternalTriumphant]

Shutup, you moron. Just because someone may describe a beer with a term denoting it is mostly preferred by women does not make it "sexist" or whatever other imbecilic -ism you're obsessed with. What's next, acknowledging the fact that there are two sexes will become "genderism"? Brainwashed idiot.

[AjaOki]

Are you going to attempt to refute my claims, or are you just going to be ignorant and childish?
