New Belgium announced last year that they will release a new batch of their jet-setting beer TransAtlantique Kriek in 2013. This tart cherry beer started in Belgium at Boon Brewery hanging out in barrels with Frank Boon, renowned pioneer of authentic gueuze and lambic style beer revival. Then, the beer was shipped to New Belgium’s headquarters where it meets a golden ale and becomes a deliciously puckering concoction with a slightly sweet finish. This will be New Belgium’s third collaboration with Boon.

“Working with Frank Boon is the ultimate partnership as we literally cross oceans to connect our passions for sour beer.”
