Bottle. Pours with a pink foamy head over a effervescent pink-red body. Excellent lacing. Kir, cherry aroma-slightly artificial. A slight cherry taste and a mild acidity. Very light bodied.

Aroma of cherries and mild chocolate. Appearance is red with creamy off red head. Flavor matches the nose pretty well; the cherry is mellow and smooth. Palate is creamy. A very drinkable Kriek, even if not the best for the style.

This is one those "I can’t believe I haven’t rated this yet" kinda deals. Anyway, its red, as one might expect. Pink head (insert joke here...), as one might continue to expect. Smells nice, like cherries, Flavor is syrupy and artificial, though, like cough syrup. The Framboise is much better.

Sorry but I just don’t get these. The cherries tasted abit synthetic and the sweetness overpowered the tartness for me. Too sugary.

This poured a cherry red color obviously, with a pinkish head. Aroma was lots of sour cherries, some funk and some artificial sweetness. Flavor was sweet and tart cherries, a bit artificial, but with some lactic sourness and funk.

cherries kinda get alittle sweet but still a good lambic.ruby color definitly catches the eye. after the first one it almost gets tart.

Bottle by ESH. Pours a red body with a light pink head. Sweet sugar cherry notes with a light woodiness. Sweet and soda like adjuncts with a slightly tart finish. okay.

Dark red with brown hints throughout and the actual pieces of the fruit can be seen floating around in it. It also has a large pink frothy head which lasts throughout almost the entire tasting process. The smell is exactly what I was expecting: tart cherries. I kind of wish that the taste was more like the smell but unfortunately it has a distinct artificial/fake taste to it. Overall it is a nice smooth Lambic but there is just something missing.
