On tap at Brick Store, very red pour with a pink head, tart cherries, but not a ton of complexity. I either want more fruit or more tart, but enjoyable.

Post ACBF boozing in that bar in Kortrijk. Slightly hazy red beer. Little pink head. Dry crisp palate. Morello cherry - not that sweet. Crisp finish. Does what it says on the tin!

Bottle from Vaaland, Bryne.Pours almost clear red with a small pinkish head. Aroma of sweet rasperry sweets with a sour undertone, exciting. Taste is very sweet but easy drinkable. Lively carbonation. Good summer drink, for long hot summer nights.

Shared bottle courtesy of tarjei. Clear ruby with a white, creamy film and bubbly rim. Fudge and cherries aroma. Fresh acidic, cherries with a sugary, malty finish. Watery texture but the carbonation prickles the tongue with an astringent acidity.

Clear glowing red with a big pink head. Aroma is moderate sweet, cherries and very light sour - balsamic. Flavor is quite sweet and moderate acidic. Fairly dry and acidic finish but far from astringent. A bit too sweet. 180311

37,5 cl bottle, bought at Vaaland, Bryne. ABV is 4%. Lovely deep red color, nice whitepink head. Aroma is berries and oak. Flavor has not much sourness, but very fine sweetness from the berries. Half dry finish. A bit thin, maybe because this is 4%, not 5%.

Sweet kriek nice barrel flavor though. IT pours a rosy red with a slightly pink head.
