Bottle courtesy of Paul at James’s 4k/5k/10k tasting. Shots fired. Officer down. Exploded and killed 6 people. Pours a deep garnet red with a thin white head. Surprising that there’s not much head given the explosion. Cheesy funk and cherries. Sweet cherry juice and funky yeast. Long chewy yeast and a bit of cherry tannins.

750mL bottle at Moeder Lambic St Gilles, pours a potent pinkish ruby red with a small few bubbled pink head. Aroma of potent cherry juice, and mild tartness. Flavour is very dry and fruity, with extremely potent juicy cherries, atop a dry unsweetened body. Tartness is very slight, with pretty much no acidity. Very soft carbonation which leaves the cherries in the forefront completely. Compared to the regular De Cam Oude Kriek, this is much softer on the palate with perhaps more potency from the cherries. Excellent stuff.
