Skinnyviking (2947), Copenhagen, Denmark May 2, 2008 Bottle. Medium high creamy and lasting pink head. Clear dark ruby body. Sweet cherries aroma. Bitter sweet cherries flavor with low carbonation and unfortunately the aftertaste is strangely short.
JAXSON (115), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 28, 2008 Pours a pretty cherry red with brown and alot of sediment. A nice sour presence pervades the area, followed by some vinegar toward the end of the pour. My wife drank much of the bottle, but I got enough to have formed an impression. Not bone-dry like other krieks, but with a wine-like quality, little residual sweetness. Cherry and oak up front. A striking amount of vinegar. Different. Slight medicinal component. tlind2 (309), Helsinki, Finland Oct 25, 2008 375 ml bottle. Deep cherry red color, pinkish head. Sweet-and-sour cherry aroma. Sweet fruity flavor. High carbonation. Not much of a kriek, lacking the proper sour flavor. santoslhalper (246), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 23, 2008 Nice ruby red body with a fizzy but long sustained pink head. Strong sweet cherry pie filling aroma with some acidity, berries and candy notes. Sweet and sour cherries in the mouth with a short, dry, tart sparkly finish. Clean and refreshing but full of subtle complexities. TheJollyOne (33), Kofu, Japan Oct 19, 2008 Ruby red pour with a small, fizzy, pink head. The smell is predominately cherry with some hints of citrus. Taste is of sour cherries and sugar, begins sour on the buds and then turns a nice bitter. Fantastic! Palate is a bit syrupy, with lively carbonation. Great lambic. RichJ7 (903), Cullman, Alabama, USA Oct 16, 2008 Reddish pour with a pink tinged head. Musty yeast aroma with big cherry presence. Flavor is sweet and tart, musty and sour with a pleasant bite. Not bad.
