// Blend of Lambics and raspberries at a ratio of 200g per litre.
"Beer with a tangy, fruity and aromatic taste. Just like Kriek, Gambrinus Rosé will display its maximum "fruitiness" if tasted young. Aging allows the Lambic to fully express itself, at the expense of the fruitiness.
Raspberries originated in Serbia. The fruit is blended with a Lambic aged on average 20 months. Since raspberries are a delicate fruit, we need to choose a smooth and mellow Lambic to harmonize with it.
After a maceration of two to three months, the Lambic will have extracted colours, aromas and flavours from the raspberries. It will then be blended with a one-year-old Lambic, which will provide the sugars necessary for the second fermentation in the bottle.
We work exclusively with fresh fruit and, as with wine, we can speak of a vintage effect for Cantillon beers. Weather plays a major role in the ripeness and quality of the fruit, which is why a fruit beer will be slightly different from year to year." - Cantillon, Brewery
