Can! shared by oldstylecubsfan. Thanks Todd! This beer smells and tastes like a ludens cherry cough drop. Delish! Not tart or sour at all, but not terribly cloyingly sweet either. Pretty darn good if you ask me.

Thanks OldStyleCubFan for sharing. Poured out of a can (!). Color is a translucent pink with a one finger frothy pink head. The nose is sweet, shows cherry and candy, some almond and cherry pit. The flavor is more sweet than I would expect, cherry and cherry skins, almond character from the pits comes through as well. Lacks the tartness I wants.

Shared at the Carolina Crew tasting by OldStyleCubFan - thanks, Todd! Nice to have something aluminum aged for once. Barrels are for suckas. Pretty handsome pour, a nice, well carbonated kriek. But lozenge lozenge lozenge, and a thinnish body to boot.

Kriek from a can! Shared by Todd at the Carolina gathering. Clear red pour. Smells like a Luden’s cough drop and tastes the same, only sweeter. Candy beer.
