SPDickerman (699) - Texas, USA - APR 30, 2013
Pours hazy pink with a large pink head. Smells of tart cherries and slight woodiness. Taste is tart, fruity, sour, and a little woody. Medium-bodied with a prickly texture and fizzy mouth-carbonation, Cantillon Kriek finishes with a lingering tartness.

Hoppypocket (109) - Trois-rivieres, Quebec, CANADA - APR 29, 2013
Pours a cloudy bright red with pink head and no lacing. Aroma of sour cherries, lots of funk. Taste is full on sour cherries, a tiny bit of oak, lots of sourness. Low body and low carbonation. Very refreshing and something i would drink all summer long.

VT (796) - Quebec City, Quebec, CANADA - APR 29, 2013
375 ml bottle. Pours a purplish, opaque pink with a resilient whitish-pinkish head. Aroma is wild fruit, wild yeast, tart. Flavor is cherry, red field berries. Finish is very tart, wild yeast, sour raspberries. Some lingering forest, humid flavor, lots of tartness, jungle-ish yeastiness. Really got no idea how else to describe it. Medium to strong body, soft mouthfeel. Weak to average carbonation. Geat discovery, was worth what it cost. Awesome product.

Härlig stämning efter SM i Eskilstuna. All är lite fulla på OC. Hasse kommer precis från brewdogs invigning. Den var tydligen gay. Saknades intyg så dom fick inte servera alkohol. Begravde en lager. Dom är ganska tramsiga

Bouteille 750 mL, embouteillée janvier 2013. Rouge à mousse rose. Nez de noyaux de cerises avec un peu d’acide acétique. Bouche acide et fruitée de cerises. Les saveurs typées de lambic sont bien présentes derrière le tout.

mathieuc (276) - Québec, Quebec, CANADA - APR 12, 2013
Bottled June 15th 2012. Pours a bright red with a big pink head. Aroma of tart cherries, very light funk. Taste is sour but not over the top with a fresh cherries flavor. Nice and balanced, really. Mouthfeel is nice with a medium level of carbonation. Nice one, but there are better krieks out there.

Silvan7 (134) - Samarate, ITALY - APR 11, 2013
Bottle & tap @ Cantillon. Come la sua gemella al lampone anche questa lambic lascia trasparire già dal profumo la cura per gli ingredienti naturali del birrificio. La annusi e ti senti trasporto davanti ad un ciliegio, altro che birre fruttate dai saporti artificiali. colore viola con una bella schiuma rosa (2 dita circa in un flute da spumante). Gusto amaricato dal luppolo, corpo scivoloso e finale astringente dato dall’acido del lambic. profuma di ciliegia più di quanto gusti come tale. ma decisamente buona. (meglio alla spina)

Tap@mikkeller & friends. Small head. Cherry red. Faint cherry notes. Gentle sour dry. Medium body. Tasty.
