3.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 bierkoning (8099) - La Tropica, NETHERLANDS - AUG 4, 2002
UPDATED: DEC 22, 2009 Strong cherry aroma, almonds.
Very sweet and a bit sour cherry taste with a hint of vanilla. Too sweet for me, but still a decent beer. (7 4 7 4 13 = 3.5)
375 ml bottle. Not filtered. Corked bottle, bought 8/08 in Belgium. Red color, but totally cloudy. Cherry, marzipan and plums in the aroma. A solid sourness next to the sugary marzipan and cherry sweetness in the flavor. Sticky, but also a lemony cherry aftertaste, with mouthpuckering tartness lingering on. Loved this one.

Opaque brown colour w/ reddish hue. Full, sweet, sour cherry nose. Thick, syrupy, sticky feel. Taste: very strong, sweet cherry flavour at first, somewhat salty in the middle, dry sour/tart finish characteristic of the lambic. Too much like soda though.
4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 dirkbreedveld (286) - NETHERLANDS - JUN 19, 2002
I’ve been there, there beer ripe for over two years in wooden barrels.
It’s amazingly fruity,because they use real cherries, preferably drink it as cool as possible as an aperatief at a dinner party i will do very well, aslo useable for making parfait, sabayons etc.
1.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 pivo (2540) - GERMANY - JUN 3, 2002
Dark ruby, purple-ish color. The nose and the flavor are dominated by an overwhelming cherry sweetness that is articifical, like kool-aid. Leaves a sugary sweetness on the lips at the end. Fizzy and refreshing, but un-sour and not like a good kriek from Belgium.

Taste is cherry artificial, colour cloudy purple. Very drinkable. Tastes like a very good refreshment on hot sommerdays.

Big sour cherry aroma. Cloudy red, pretty pink head, a few floaties. Sweet sour cherry taste. Tart, crisp, slight bitterness. Not overly sweet, refreshing. Fine Lambic.

Cloudy, rhubard-like reddish color, foamy white head. Corked, spicy cherry nose. Cork in the initial taste, sweet cherry body, semi-tart finish. The cork aroma and tastes get in the way, of an otherwise, fairly complex brew, besides being a little too sweet.
