Draft at De Groote Witte Arend, Antwerp. Amber red color with a medium white head. Aroma is malty cereal grain, sugar, spice and light cherry. Flavor has a bit more cherry and some sweetness, light zesty spice but no real sourness. Medium to light body. Ok beer but nothing I’d go out of my way for again.

Tap at De Groote Witte Arend, Antwerp. Pours clear, pink-red with a small, white foam head. It’s a fine beer, lightly fruity, pretty mellow overall. The fruit character is on the light end, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Light bodied, finely carbonated with a crisp, quenching finish. Nice.

25 cl. draft sampled @ De Groote Witte Arend: – A: amber red with a white head – S: grains, wheat, esters, touch of hop, no kriek or cherry – T: grains, wheat, spices, esters, booze, slight hint of cherry jam in the finish, almost not sure if I could find it if I weren’t looking for it, amazingly little fruit in here, I was expecting the usual white sugar & cherry grenadine bomb but almost no fruit in here, very odd, not that very different from the Arend Blond which I tried also De Groote Witte Arend – B: medium

Draft at Grote Witte Arend. Amber pour with a big white head. Cherry aroma but not a great deal of fruit in the flavour. It has a slight sourness but has been sweetened.

On tap at De Groote Witte Arend, Antwerp with Kermis. Decent white head. Cherry red amber colour. A decent kriek but not outstanding

Interesting nice dark purple coloured, medium sized pink head that went away fast leaving funny lace, dry cherry nose. The taste is cherry, light spicy and fruity with notes of dried fruits and cinnamon. Pleasant sweet and sour finish.
