Samuel Smith's Organic Cherry Ale

"The process begins with the careful selection of the finest European wheat, which brings smoothness, purity and neutrality to crafting Ketel One Vodka. Each final production run is approved by a member of the Nolet family. The purpose of this extensive production process and associated effort is to make a truly exceptional vodka. Sophisticated and crisp, this is Ketel One Vodka." -producer

"In origin, this sweet-acidic drink was obtained by adding fresh black cherries to a barrel Lambic of 6 months young. The addition of fruits provokes a new fermentation in the oak barrels. After another 8 to 12 months, only peels and stones are left and the Kriek-Lambic is ready to be filtered and bottled. The residual sugar can be adjusted with straight-on fruit juice to start a refermentation in the bottle. This traditional type of fruit beer is more acidic and less fruity. Because of the limited availability of the Schaerbeekse cherries and so to brew a less sour and more fruity Lambic beer, Lindemans farm brewery developed a unique alternative natural method using pure cherry juice from unfrozen cherries. This straight cherry juice is blended with selected Lambic of different ages. Kriek has a pink-red color and a delicious taste of sparkling cherry champagne. Serve cold at 36 °F." —brewer

"Clear shiny pale yellow in color. Beautiful fresh apple aromas and fine hints of yeast fill the glass. The mouth-feel is elegant with a wonderful light structure and the perfect balance of fruit, vibrant acidity, soft tannins, and a little residual sugar, all magnified by a playful CO2 fizz. The finish is delicate and lively with a refreshing aftertaste. This is cider at its best!" —brewer

"Westmalle Tripel is a clear, golden yellow Trappist beer that undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle (9.5% alcohol). It is a complex beer with a fruity aroma and a nice nuanced hop scent. It is soft and creamy in the mouth, with a bitter touch carried by the fruity aroma. An exceptional beer, with a great deal of finesse and elegance. And with a splendid long aftertaste. The Westmalle Tripel is indeed called the 'mother of all tripels.' This type of beer was first brewed in Westmalle abbey in 1934 when the new brewing hall came into use. The current formula has stayed practically unchanged since 1956, thus more than 50 years." —brewer
