It’s no secret that pFriem Family Brewers makes some of the best beer you’ll find anywhere. 

They’ve got piles of awards, they just won Regional Brewery of the Year at the Oregon Beer Awards AGAIN, and The Beer Connoisseur named them the Best Brewery in the World a few years back!

If you want to find out what makes this exceptional crew so beloved, Kriek (2024) is an excellent place to begin.

The brewers started with a Lambic-inspired base aged for a full year in French oak barrels. Then they added four different varieties of locally grown cherries and allowed the beer to soak up those orchard flavors for another 3 months. 

Vibrant and jammy stone fruit nuances swirl through the dry, tangy pour while subtle hints of wild funk and whispers of oak add even more complexity. And in pFriem’s skilled hands, it all stays incredibly approachable. 

Is this REALLY the best brewery in the world? We suggest grabbing a bottle or two, inviting  over some craft-loving buddies, and debating the issue until all the beer is gone. You might not come to any absolute conclusions, but it’s bound to be delicious!
