German Kriek

Just another victim of the german "brausteuergesetz" (brewing tax law).

cherry beer 1731

"Cherry beer

This is a useful beer in the summer, because it is mellow and pleasant to the warm stomach

and it has a nice color and a dulcet taste

If the kernels are crushed it will be a pervading and diuretic beer.

This is healthier than if the cherries are infused as a whole."
