375ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours a deep red with a pink tinged head. Great cherry aroma, and nice tartness with a sweet finish.

Bottle at Plan B Best Before 2004. It pours red in colour with a small off white head. Aroma is sweet cherry, wood and marzipan. The taste is to sweet with weak notes of cherry and prunes. Its very watery like with weak metallic notes in the sweet cherry after taste.

Bottled. Red with pink head. Aroma of cherries. Flavor is sweet cherries and sourness. Tone of almonds

25cl bottle. pours reddish, light pink head. aroma light cherries, sugary, and a litle on the sour side. taste, cherry, was getting a little extra tartness compared to the extra version, still the beer remained on teh sweet side. Easy to drink, not the best kriek out there.

Bottle. Red with a pleasant cherry aroma.Fruity and pleasant but wouldn’t be my choice for an everyday drink.

Got this can across the way from the train station in Schaerbeek, Brussels, Belgium yesterday. Kinda had high hopes for this especially after I poured and took a whif. Looks great with a big pink foamy, frothy, textured head and loads of lace. Aroma was apparent immediately upon opening the can of pie cherries. Closer sniff gave up some floral qualities too. Flavor was not so good; body either. Taste was very shallow; only of the aroma and barely any beer. Body was super thin. Tawdry. Somebody’s trying to get by on the cheap. I call you out sir! Think I’m being a little over kind in the ratings actually.

The beer pours a dark ruby red with a slight brown tinge, the head was quit large and had a pink / tan color. The aroma was powerful at first of sweet and sour cherries, but when the head started to desipear the sent was much harder to pick up. The smell had a detergent or bathroom airfreshener quality about it, this aspect of the aroma put me off a little. The beer had a very dry mouth feel, and tasted like Sour Cherry Blaster chewy candy and that’s about all I can taste , the beer is very one dimensional. I tried hard to like this brew because I thought I would, but it just doesn’t work for me plus every once in a while I’ll get it on tap and every time I do that I wake up with a ax splitting head ache I think due to the high sugar content.

Ótima cerveja. Diferente e gostosa. Fazia algum tempo que estavaa geladeira. Espuma vinho, bonita,mas some rápido. Coloração vinho escuro. Cheiro suave de uvas, um pouco alcoolizado, o que é bom. Carbonada. Cerejas. Densa. O alcool está muito bem disfarçado. Boa cerveja.
