Pinkish colour. Very citric, with bags of fruit in the flavour, a fair amount of farmyard and a definite blue cheese character. Distinctly tart, but clean and refreshing too. A classy offering from Drie Fonteinen. Bottled at Reading Beer Festival 2005.

Deep ruby red pour with a thin white head. Funky vinegar aroma with lots of acidity. Very sour flavor, perfect for my tastes. Some cherry. Excellent kriek.

Raspberry with a cotton-candy colored head. Very sour cherry skin, funk, and lemon zest aroma. Flavor is amazing...pungent, mouth watering, lip puckering goodness. Great mouthfeel...refreshing!!!

Bottle. Poured dark red with a pink head. Hoppy citric aroma with lots of sour cherries. Within the sourness in the flavour is cherry and hops. Very pleasant. Medium bodied. Great lambic.

Bottle. Head aach non-existant. Lovely dark ruby body. Mild and yet tart chrrries aroma. A bit flat metallic and in my opinion too sweet flavor with low carbonation and a long aftertaste.
