Very, very cherry. Like their banana lambic, only with a different fruit. Heavy on the sweetness, light on the lambic.

Kulminator, under de troch kriek, but its clearly chapeau kriek, 2001. Notes say: Super cherry, sweetness is actually well hidden, hits the spot in a few ways?

A hazy purple kriek with a very thin rosey white head. Aroma of sweet cherry, musty, citric points. In mouth, this beer comes out a bit week compared to the St. Louis Premium Peche, since the lactic acidity which I long for in such a beer is lacking here. A good cherry base, again musty a lightly oxidized, a bit lacklustre mouthfeel, lighter bodied, short in mouth. Bieropholie import Nov. 2005. No BB date.

Appearance: cherry-red, low head. Aroma: cherry, reminiscence of citric wild fruits and plums. Flavor: sweet beginning - citric end of wild fruits, the flavor to cherries is dominant, nevertheless this has artificial features. Palate: slight body and watery texture. Beer with artificial aroma and flavor of cherries.

Bottle; nose of sweet cherries and only a tiny tart hint; red with a small pink head; flavor is cherry, cherry, and more cherry. Too sweet!
