75 cl bottle @ home, BBE 03/2012
Aroma has cherry juice, hints of vanilla and some earthy notes. Flavour is juicy, sour and tart with cherry juice, hints of metal and some earthy notes. Some harsh tartness in the finish. Too juicy and too low on sourness. This does get a bit more sour towards the end of the bottle though.

Bouteille de 750ml. Ouverte par inadvertance, je voulais une gueuze white label. Bière rouge translucide avec une mousse rose qui ne reste pas longtemps. Les couleurs sont vives. Le nez a des beaux arômes de sauvage, et de cerises en pot. De belles griottes belges. La bouche est crémeuse, huileuse, quelle belle texture. Les cerises sont bien présentes, gouteuses, les saveurs bien dosées. J’adore.

(75 cl) Une petite tête rose qui flotte pour quelques secondes sur un liquide à la belle robe rouge. Un nez sur les cerises surettes qui sont rattrapées par une certaine douceur. Des notes rustiques qui montent en fines vapeurs. Des arômes qui ne sont pas agressifs. Un goût dominé par la douceur des fruits avec des notes surettes et les habituelles caractéristiques de la levure sauvage et autres microbes. Une bouche bien agréable avec un corps moelleux et un pétillement doux. Une texture qui n’est jamais aqueuse. Une finale surette mais peu intense. Une kriek facile à boire et facile à apprécier.
