Labeled as Cherish Kriek. Sampled on draft this beer poured a dark pink-red color with a large pink head that faded quickly but left good lacing. The aroma was sweet sugar and artificial cherry. The flavor was very tart with a strong cherry juice presence. The finish was incredibly long with tart cherry juice dominating. Light to medium body. Excellent.

Bottle at Rockaway Seafood Company for dessert. Clear pale pinkish red color, small but tight head. Aroma is fresh cherry juice, slightly medicinal. Light bodied with spritzy, champagne like carbonation. Has an authentic cherry infusion flavor. The finish is outstanding, very long, first sweet, then tart, then sweet, then tart, then just perfect balance and harmony. Really good.

3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Gusler (2654) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - DEC 1, 2002
A brilliantly clear cherry red color on the pour. Head is AWOL, as is the lace. Nose is “Cherry Cough Drops”, or better yet one of my mother’s “Cherry Cobblers”, God how I miss her and those pies, but then that’s what makes memories so special. Front is sweet, but the tartness hits immediately at the gaunt top. Finish is acidulous, sparsely hopped, dry sherry like aftertaste, pleasant at any rate and if you like lambics, the “Cherish” line as with Melbourne Bros. are well worth a sample. Ranks #360 on my current 1000 beer masterlist.

I didn't expect much from this beer but I was impressed. It pours with a red body topped by a thin head with little lacing. The aroma is full of sweet marichino (sp?) cherries with slight malt notes. The flavor is slightly sour yet sweet with tons of marichino(sp? again) and a hint of malt. Light bodied, smooth and dry.

On tap at Den Tatorverede Enke during RBESG 05 pub crawl. Looks great - bright cerise, with a pink fluffy head. Good marzipan, cherry, cough syrupflavour. Falls off a little on the finish, but otherwise sweet, thick , creamy and very tasty.

A Sim rate (bottled from the Belgian Belly): Glorious sweet kriek aroma with sour hints. Similar in the flavour. Tangy and slightly acidic in a balsamic vinegar Rodenbach Grand Cru kind of way. Almost spirit like rather than beer like.
