Very sweet and fruity as expected. I actually expected it to be sweeter and was pleased at the mildness of the flavor. Hard to compare against other Lambic as this was one of my first.

Pours red in color with a big white head. Smells like cherries, and sourness. Pretty good, not as sour as I was anticipating, but its pretty good. Not bad, very driinkable. I like this.

375 ml bottle, 2000 vintage, sampled in 2006. Red, towards pink. Light pink head, lots of carbonation. Lots of lambic in the aroma.. Sour, aggressive and funky... lots of flavours going on here. I can’t help but thinking that the cherries have mellowed over the years. Really dry throughout. Still puzzled over this beer style...

(375ml bottle) Pours a hazy reddish body with a moderate light pink head. Aroma of sour cherries and earthiness. Organic flavor of acidic cherry with a touch of oak barrel. Descent kriek, but does not rank among the elite.

bottle from 1998 at Carlsens kvarter: Red with pinky white head. Very Sour. Live carbonation. cherry of course. Vinous. A lot more abstract and complexed than your average Kriek! Exciting!

Courtesy of Acertain...I’m pretty certain. <P> Huge vinegaretee and baby corn aroma. Cloudy faded red/pink in color with a two finger thick pink-tinted head. Fore is tart with lots of sour cherry, msg laden baby corn and and plenty of funkiness to assure the drinker they have a lambic in their hands. A little less acidic than some lambics I’ve had and a good bit sweeter though there is sourness aplenty. Feels lighter of body than even some fruit beer knock off lambics, but has a pleasant all around drinkability to it.
