http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kriek

Kriek is a Belgian beer fermented with sour (also called Morello) cherries. Traditionally "Schaarbeekse krieken" (a rare Belgian morello variety) from the area around Brussels are used. Kriek is a Dutch word for sour cherry. As the Schaarbeek type cherries have become more difficult to find, some brewers have replaced these (partly or completely) with other varieties of sour cherries, sometimes coming from other countries.

Father Georges-Henri Lemaître (July 17, 1894 – June 20, 1966) was a Belgian Roman Catholic priest, honorary prelate, professor of physics and astronomer.


Monsignor Georges-Henri Lemaître, priest and scientist (1894 - 1966).Fr. or Msgr. Lemaître proposed what became known as the Big Bang theory of the origin of the Universe, although he called it his 'hypothesis of the primeval atom'.
