Lindemans Kriek

Bottle. Pours an extremely deep hazy red with pink, off-white head. Nice sediment present. Aroma is strong cherry with slight funk. Taste is not as overpowering as expected, however the cherry is of course the dominant flavor present - coupled with very light yeast notes. Very subtle tartness present towards the finish.

Bottlel; beautiful ruby body with a rosey foamy head. Aroma is only slightly lactic sour, but strongly sweet candy cherry. Flavor was sweet cranberry-cherry punch then a light sourness that finishes slightly floral. I think this would’ve made a decent substitute for wine but needed a bit more aging to be a good beer. Just too sweet.

Aroma is very cherry, with some hints of yeast. Flavor is cherry/sour cherry...the cherry reminds me of some cherry cough drops that I’ve had. Over all quite an interesting combination of sweet and then sour cherry with yeast in between.

12-oz., heavy green glass, corked, capped, and foiled. Kind of a PITA. Pours a very dark garnet with a bright pink frothy head and plenty of stringy pinky lacing. Gimungous synthetic cherry nose hits you as soon as you open it, and doesn’t stop hitting you until you somehow get away. Kind of makes you feel like Muhammad Ali in Kinshasa, fighting a huge purple and pink George Foreman in the early rounds. Creamy medium body. Unbelievably cloying sweet cherry candy mid-palate. Somewhere between cheap ice cream and expensive cough syrup. Long sticky white sugar finish. Total insulin shock.

Draft @ Lindemans. Pours a clear red color with a small pinkish head. Has a sweetish fruity cherry aroma with some tart hints. Sweet fruity cherry flavor. Has a very sweet fruity cherry finish.

Deep purple with medium light red head... cherry malt aroma with a strong tart cherry flavor... very sweet... Kriek’s are typically my fav lambic

A very deep red with a thin purple head. Very heavy cherry fruit note with some light tartness. Flavor mimics the nose. Sugary feel to this lighter brew. Very easy to down as it tastes almost like cherry juice with just a slightly more tart/light farmhouse note to it. Overall a decent brew.

Pours a deep red color with a fine white head to it. Smells just like Vicks 44. Has a nice cherry. Has a nice cherry flavor up front but turns out very sweet. Way to sweet for me.
