Boon Oude Kriek

Brewed by Brouwerij F. Boon
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Lembeek, Belgium

Bottle at Oud Arsenaal, 2003 vintage, march 07. Spicy, winey, mustard, cherries aroma. Sour, but mild flavor. Vinegary with a touch of honey and some fresh fruit acidity with a salty ending. Medium to light MF with a flavor packed palate. Begins sour, follows fruity and ends with a salty refreshing feeling. Extremely refreshing. Appareance is a rich, deep, red color with a long lasting rosé head. A very weel crafted, complex, sipping sour-cherry beer.

Bottled. Vintage 2000. Deep red with a frothy, pink head. Ratger sour aroma with nice cherryseed-notes. Rather short flavour. Dissapointingly thin actually. Pretty sour and pleasant cherry-falvour though.

Delicious and tart. Brillaint red color covered with a fluffy pink pillow of head. It smelled of tart cherries and bitter berries. The flavor was complex and tart on the tounge. Very refreshing and light. Amazing flavor and perfectly balanced.

lovely hazy amber pink colour, lotsa floaters, some decent pink head, nose is acidic with cherry. taste is definate lambic sour with nice cherry flavour even a little pits bitterness. well done re rate- had again , very old bottle with friends. wow has this ever aged nicely, so refreshing. Love these Boon lambics

I love lambic’s. This one was no different. Pours a lovely rich, glowing red with a thin pink light head. Smells like your typical lambic. Cherries and sourness. The taste was much of the same. Balance was done well. Nothing overpowering the other. Killer.

375ml Bottle from Ledgers; Berkley; tart funky cherry nose;slightly hazed raspberry red color; flavor was very tart with only a hint of background sweetness mixed with the cherry. A nice TART lambic-fruit! Like a cherry flavored guezue!

Bottle, 375 ml, 2000 vintage. Red colour, pink head. Typical lambic aroma, with shades of wood and glögg. More vinous than the oude kriek from 3 fonteinen. Flavour is a bit tame, I had expected it to be more harsh.

Bottle picked up in Antwerp Oct’ 06. This poured a wonderfully rich pink colour with a huge fizzing pink head. Aroma was yeasty, slightly acrid with a noticeable sour cherryness to it. Taste once you were past the first zappy sharp cherry acid tangs was lovely and got better as the beer warmed slightly, really enjoyed this but unfortunately fell asleep before being able to finish this beer 3.6 October 2006 Bottle at the Hopduvel, Gent 07-12-07 A nice pink head sat atop a vimto coloured beer, cherry sour aroma wonderfully spritzy some woody dryness, not as harsh as the Cantillon or 3 Fonteinen Krieks but in my opinion the best of this trio, lovely. 3.9 December 2007
