| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Feb 14, 2005 As with the Mirabelle, I’m surprised at the low ranking. This wasn’t bad. Poured a cherrywood color with a small pinkish head. The nose was decidedly tart cherry. Perhaps thin and watery with lively carbonation. The flavor was sour/tart cherries.

Deep and hazy red color with small kriek head. Sweet and sour cherry aroma, which is mixed with other berries and alcohol. Quite sweet, only slightly sour cherry flavor. Watery body makes this fresh and very easy to drink. Volgon (2488), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

Huge sweet cherry aroma that is pretty sweet. Starts and ends sweet with a raw sugar taste in the middle between two sours tastes. Light body that is a bit watery and a sweet finish. macguy (144), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 7, 2004 It’s a tad sweet for me, but not a bad Kriek. Nice sour (but in a good way)pie cherry flavor. I’ll have another soon,. dirkules (613), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 19, 2004 I think my friend Susan put it best when she said... "It’s not like drinking beer at all!" and i’s true. It’s not beer at all. Not that it’s terrible. It’s cherry and all, but I’ll pass on this Lambic. burcusabrews (106), St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 30, 2004 pale orange with a rose’ head. Deep luscious cherry nose. Nice clean cherry flavor. This balances nice with teh sourness and is very refreshing. It could use a bit more fruit flavor for this style. Pigfoot (2226), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 27, 2004 Tiny, but bubbly head, deep cherry red color, (naturally). Straightforward aroma of cherries, both sweet and sour. Very light in body and texture, with an incredible amount of sourness on the palate, which diminishes, leading toward a sweetish finish. Very mellow and pleasant, simple and satisfying. Not an extraordinary lambic, but solid example.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 22, 2004 The aroma can best be summed up by either "Cherry Lifesavers" or "Sucrets". Bing cherry aroma with just a hint of bitterness. Hazy dark strawberry red with thin pink head. Medium watery body with light carbonation. Sweet cherry flavor to start, though watery. Mild acidity throughout, very fruity. Finish is cherry and just a little lambic-ness. After is mildly fruity, not bitter. Drinkable, like a fruit juice, but not a stellar kriek lambic.
