@plactagonic @homebrewing I did some research last year and looks like those Belgian krieks are actually stored in wine barrels for a year to infuse them with the cherry flavor. That was a bit too much for my means ๐
I would be very interested in alternative methods to get similar results as well.
@AndiPopp @homebrewing I know, few months ago I was in Belgium and visited brewery that makes lambics.
Tbh I really don't like this style I was thinking about some dubbel or some different strong style.
@plactagonic @homebrewing Ah ok, haven't seen many of those using cherries so I probably jumped to conclusions. I'm still interested in what your coming up with ๐
