4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
750ml bottle split. Murky, juicy red. Massive pink toned head. Mellow, sweet, sugary cherry aroma. Smooth and ridiculously easy to drink. Lots of fruity juice tones. Classic, awesome stuff.

Botttle. Pours a hazed red with a nice soft pink head. Smells like Luden’s cough drops with some light funk. Big tart cherry flavors, like a nice cherry pie. Surprisingly nice flavors in spite of the piles of sweetness and artificial sugars in here. Tart with some light acid. Still a bit too sweet but the acid keeps it in check to some degree. Best of the sweetened Lindeman’s so far.

Tasted from a 355 mL (12 oz) bottle purchased in Fort Collins, Colorado. Head is like what you would expect from a strawberry soda. Medium to dark cherry red appearance. Sweet, delicious sour cherry aroma. Flavor is almost like sour cherry juice, though this is not necessarily negative. Alcohol is a bit low (4% ABV) but overall a pretty good kriek.

25cl bottle. Deep red, clear beer with a nice pink head. Aroma is very intense, and almost only cherry. Flavour is almost only sweet cherry as well, with a little sour in the aftertaste. A bit too sweet for my taste though.

nice cherry red color with a pink head. a little too sticky sweet for my taste- a bit like cherry soda.

Den var mycket lättdrucken, söta körsbär och med stor hinkability.
Absolut en trevlig öl i solen.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Poured out a deep red-cranberry color, with a rocky pink head on it. Aroma is strongly of sour cherries, red rose pedals, and sugar-topped cherry pie. Taste kept all these qualities, beautifully. Blatant black cherry with a tangy tartness is most notable and super delicious. Sweet and sour battle it out on the palate amid lively soda-like carbonation. Finishes sweet. I have issues calling this a "beer"...but it’s still dang good.

Bottle: Pours a clear ruby red, pink head with nice retention on this one. So yes, honestly it’s a sigh of relief at the rasberry. Sure - there’s hardly any lambic here - it’s a bit fake, or perhaps somewhere in between but at least this one falls somewhere in the middle. Cherry pits in the aroma; flavors are cherries, the fake elements are there as well, obviously, and the funkiness that you’d expect out of a kriek are hardly there, if at all. Yet it seems fairly balanced, either way. Not bad. And when I say not bad, I mean in comparison to some of the others...
