From century-old Belgian cherry lambics to contemporary tropical Gose: a guide to the main styles and the best products in the Maltese catalog.

🍒 Kriek — The cherry that made history

Kriek is the original: Belgian lambic refermented with Schaarbeekse cherries, a nearly extinct variety, with a sour and tannic flavor. The result is a dry, complex beer, far from the sweetness one might expect. It’s the fruit beer for those who really want to understand what it’s about.

• Kriek Cantillon — the classic par excellence, Cantillon Brussels
• Kriek De Ranke — Boon lambic refermented with fresh cherries
• Oude Kriek — 3 Fonteinen — one of the most sought-after labels worldwide
• Schaarbeekse Oude Kriek 2020 — pure Schaarbeekse cherries, vintage 2020

For those who: love natural wines, acidity, complexity. This is not a sweet beer. Order your Kriek →

🍓 Framboos & Raspberries — Acidity and aroma

Framboos (raspberry in Flemish) follows the same logic as Kriek: lambic refermented with fresh raspberries. Deep red color, fragrant aroma, dry and acidic palate. Perfect as an alternative aperitif or paired with fresh cheeses.

• Framboos — Het Boerenerf — leading craft producer
• Framboos Lambic — pure raspberry lambic
• Rosé de Gambrinus — Cantillon — Cantillon icon, raspberries and grapes

🍑 Peach, Plum & Stone Fruit — Rarities not to miss

The rarest and most sought-after category: long fermentations with stone fruit produce soft, deep, often wine-like beers. Limited availability — when they're gone, they're gone.

• Quart Pêche — peach in lambic maceration
• Oude Quetsche — Tilquin — wild plum, Gueuzerie Tilquin
• Melocotón — peach, contemporary Iberian style

🍊 Citrus & Tropical Fruit — Perfect for summer

🍇 Grape & Wine — The boundary between beer and nature

The most fascinating and controversial category: beers fermented with grapes, must, or in wine barrels. If you love natural wines, these beers will win you over. The boundary with natural wine becomes thinner — and the result is something unique.

• Saint Lamvinus — Merlot and Cabernet Franc, Cantillon
• Vineyard — Birra Gaia — Italian grape, craft production
• Druiven Rood — Extraomnes — red grape, Lombard brewery
