fonefan (23599) - VestJylland, DENMARK - MAY 23, 2007
Bottle. 37.5 cl. Unclear medium red color with a averge to large frothy good lacing mostly lasting pink head. Aroma is light cherry, sweet and sour. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and light acetic with a average to short duration. Body is light to medium texture is watery, carbonation is soft. Very refreshing and fruit sour.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JAN 25, 2004
A clear cherry red beer with a beutiful light brown head. The aroma is sweet and sour. The flavor is primarily of sour cherries and wood with an underlying sweetness and slightly sourness - not too much of either. For a Kriek I think it isn't sour enough and the cherries are a bit too prominent. A nice beer, but not perfect.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUN 6, 2005
(Bottle 37,5 cl) Very dark red - close to black - decent, pinkisk head. The cherries are not so prominent in this, but they’re certainly detectable - especially because they’re not completely drowned by sourness. Even a slight hint of sweetness. A decent and drinkable classical Kriek. 100897

ZBF2008: From bottle. Pours slight hazy red with a lacing white head. Aroma is sulphorish acidic cherry, quite dry. Flavour is dry cherry and light woody. Dry finish. Lovely fruity, sulphorish and dry.

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - APR 30, 2002
Deep burgundy. Dry and balanced. Light aroma of sour cherries. Reminiscent of a Cabernet Sauvignon. The draught version appears more fruity, and is even better than the bottled one.

oh6gdx (15510) - Vasa, FINLAND - OCT 23, 2005
Bottled. Orangered colour, nice reddish head. Sour cherry aroma. Sour cherry flavour, but yet very smooth. Lovely dry sour palate, long sourish aftertaste.

UPDATED: SEP 9, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of fat cherries, some earth and acidity. Clear dark red colour. Plenty, stable bright red head. Acidic flavour with a little sweetness, bitter cherries, a little earth. Very nice, but a little too sweet for me. 6 4 7 3 15
