12oz corked bottle. Pours a clear red color with a thick pink head. Sweet cherry aroma reminds me of cherry soda. Flavor was not as sweet as expected. Same cherry soda in the flavor, but not in a bad way. A bit tart on the finish. Very drinkable.

Bottled. Very thick looking red beer with a steady head. The aroma is lightly cherry and the flavour is light and quite sour. Overall a reasonable lambic.

Dark red with a small pink foam. Strong, sweet natural aroma of black cherries. . Sugary but still natural flavour of cherries and brown sugar. Sweet aftertaste. Too sweet for me.

UPDATED: AUG 16, 2010 First rating saturday, july 30, 2005: 5/4/6/4/15 total 3.4. Dark red with small pink head, it has a aroma that reminds me of cherry-yoghurt. The taste starts sweet but the aftertaste is sour. A nice kriek overall. (Corked bottle 37.5cl crop 2003)
Rerate: First bottle vintage 2009, bottle 25cl. 3/4/4/2/10 total 2.4. Nice red coloured beer with a firm pink head. Aroma of cherry soap. Flavour is way to sweet, like drinking sugarwater with cherry flavour.
Rerate: Second bottle vintage 2008, corked bottle 37,5cl. Nice red coloured beer with a fast diminishing white-pinkish head. Nice cherry aroma, flavour is sweet and a litlle it sour, but still to sweet for me. 6/3/6/3/12 total 3.

(Bottled, 2002 vintage, 4.5% abv.) Deep red, almost purple, unclear colour. Not much head. Cherry aroma with faint notes of cork. Somewhat sourish cherry flavour, but overall a bit too sweet.

Bottled. 2003 oogst. Sour cherry aroma with pretty evident gueze-like corky notes. Lightly to medium tart with a medium sweetness. Woody, corky flavours. Dries out on the tongue. Nice one. Not too much sweetness.

Nice musky cherry lambic. A simple rendition of the style and an accessible introduction to the world of sour beers. I like it as one of my favorite fruit beers.

Ooh! A cloudy reddish color that makes me think of strawberry soda. Cherry taste. Kinda tarty and fizzy.

Pours a hazy red with a pink foam head. Tart barnyard cherry aroma. Sweet and musky cherry flavor. A bit watery. Somewhat one dimensional, but still had a nice, real cherry flavor.
