4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle at Nütnigenough in Brussels. It poured a dark red liquid with a pale pink head. Berry and fruity smell with cherries and barn yard. Sour and berry taste with cherries and also some sweetness. Not an overly sour lambic, actually somewhere between the sour and the sweet. Nice beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle - liquor express - pours a clear ruby with a white head. Aroma is a mild cherry. Taste is sour, but mellow, not so biting as a younger lambic would be. Interesting.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle (vintage 2000): Reddish-amber coloured, hazy, some floaties visible, sourish-cellary nose with a pronounced almondy cherry fruitiness; light to medium bodied, pretty soft MF, moderate sourish-sweet flavour; lingering - as well - sourish-sweet finish, cherries and cellary flavours detectable. A nice fruit-beer......
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Dark reddish color, small and fully diminishing head. Moderate, sweetish and very fruity aroma with dark berries – cherries, sourness. Body is medium, sweetish and fruity flavor, cherries and sourness. Finish is average, lightly sweetish and very sour, some cherries and light fruitiness. Kriek with nice cherry/fruity sourness especially in the aroma. Flavor has bit too much sourness – aroma and flavor are not in balance.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Vintage 2000! Light hazy brown red coloured with lots of carbonation and a medium dence white head. Light fruity hinted aroma with some slight herby touches. Full palate. Finish is sour fruity, little bit herby/peppery with a dry sweet sour cherry ending. Not to sharp, nicely balanced.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
375 ml bottle of 2008 vintage.
Pours beautiful hazy red with medium pink head. Aroma is cherries, some fruits, a bit strawberries and sugar. Flavour is cherries, strawberries, distant notes of honey and some spices. Medium sourness and a bit too thin. Enjoyable nonetheless.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
38 cl bottle, 2008 vintage. BBE 21.01.2030
Aroma is rather weird for an oude kriek. It is sour, but has just small amount of cherries. It is also a bit sweaty and has earthy notes. Flavour is sour with surprisingly small amount of cherry aroma. Lots of cardamom instead of that, just like in Mort Subite Oude Kriek. Too close to a juice and the cardamom (or cinnamon?) does not fit here. Could also be more sour. Adding the yeast gives more sourness, but it also raises the berry-like aromas and gives some harsh bitterness to the flavour.
