Bottle: Poured a deep reddish color beer with a huge pink color head with good retention and good lacing. Aroma of cherry is dominant with light tart notes also noticeable. Taste is also dominated by sweet cherry notes with light tart notes also discernable and quite a lot of sugar. Body is about average with good carbonation. I know syrup is used in there and I know this is not brewed as per traditional ways but I can’t help but fall in love with this guilty pleasure each time I drink this.

One of the finer krieks around, it has a deep red colour and a nice sweet taste. One can really taste and smell the use of cherries in this beer, which is presented in a fairly fancy bottle.

MikeKeller (404) - Kemi Rock City, FINLAND - AUG 13, 2010
Bottle from Alko. Hazy, deep red colour with some whitey head. Strong, delicious cherry on the nose. Sweetish and sour in the same time the taste is full of cherry also. Simply a good one!

375cl bottle at home. Very very sweet with no lambic character. Very one dimensional in the flavour and aroma which is dominated by sweet cherries.

scottw86 (836) - Maryland, USA - AUG 8, 2010
Poured a dark red/purple with a bright pink head. Nice aroma of sweet cherries with some sour notes. Taste is very sweet with lots of cherries. At first I could only taste cherries but it transitions into the sour and ester flavors I’m used to in lambics. Reminds me more of a wine cooler than beer, but it is pretty tasty.

TheBeerOrg (1979) - Crestwood, Kentucky, USA - AUG 7, 2010
Pours hazy ruby with a thin pink head. Notes of cherry, sour candy, berry, wheat. Light bodied and tart with smooth carbonation. Like a candy soda.

weihenweizen (633) - West Virginia, USA - JUL 25, 2010
Refrigerated 355 mL bottle poured into a glass. Pours a medium red with medium pink head. Aroma is cheeries and taste is tart cherries and finishes a little dry. Lots of fruit not so much usually beer taste, but still good.

mcberko (2195) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - JUL 25, 2010
355mL bottle, pours pinkish red with a small pink head. Aroma of sweet cherries and little else. Flavour of potent sweet cherries, with just enough sour balance to keep the sweetness from being overburdening. Another excellent Lindemans lambic.
