Decent. Tastes like sparkling juice. Alcohol is barely noticeable. Light bitterness to the finish. Very refreshing drink. No complexity, only cherry flavor.

Nice.. But not as fresh nor tasty as Lindemans Kriek. (This beer rating was imported from FB and unfortunately lacks any further comments.)

fata2683 (2066) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - OCT 26, 2008
Bottle(classique) poured into a tumbler. Appearance is dark red with a light white head. Smells like cherry syrup. Taste is light with some sweet cherry and light bitter and sour in the finish. It’s highly carbonated and keeps it fresh and light. Not as sour as I thought it would be, but its not bad for a commercial kriek

Thylacine (509) - Tasmania, AUSTRALIA - JUL 11, 2007
My first Lambic - Fruit so it was interesting to say the least. Dark cherry red in colour. A long lasting, frothy, pinkish head. Smells like a soap shop. Medium body and low to medium carbonation. Not malty at all. Sweet cherry, cranberry and apple flavours with a very slight sourness. Not my normal taste in a beer but quite enjoyable.

edblandon (3) - EL SALVADOR - NOV 5, 2007 does not count
Definitely a different beer. I was curios to try it due to the fermentation, maturing and ageing process. Wine red color with really strong cherry aroma and sour/sweet aftertaste.

MBison (548) - Southern Highlands, AUSTRALIA - MAR 2, 2008
Bottle (375ml). Poured blood red with a good size pink head which was mostly lasting. Aroma was of glazed cherries, strawberries, strawberry topping and some cherry sherbet. Flavor was of tart cherries with a light bitterness, some sweet raspberries and cherry sherbet. Light to medium bodied with spritzy carbonation, syrupy texture and a ok finish.

gmonroe10 (175) - NETHERLANDS - JUN 9, 2008
Tap in cafe in Amersfort market. Pours a carbonated red, large head with a pink hue that quickly dissipates. Cherry aroma, and taste is cherry, but not as fruity as a rose beer. Fine, but nothing you’d want to have too many of.

The good of lambic is that thy’re a box of surpraise, you can expect what you’ll get but never predict it. Aroma of belle vue has nothing special but appearance is wonderful, the proportion between liquid and foam makes me get in love ot a beer, taste is quite sweet and acid, not too sparnklig what I like, overall is a good choice for sweet beers.
