jb (1024), Rochester, New York, USA Aug 10, 2009 Big fruity berry flavor, like an ice cream cone. Very reddish/pink. Nice lacing, like soda pop. Great! delnoche (212), Germany Jul 31, 2009 25cl bottle poured into a tulip glass. Dark red with practilcally no head. Aroma is cherry cough syrup. Flavor is the same. Finishes very sour. Not my thing. Defreni (994), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 31, 2009 Flaske: Rød gennemsigtig øl med et fint lille lyserødt skumhoved. Kraftig tyggegummi duft. Smagen er til at begynde med den samme tyggegummi kunstig kirsebær smag. Men der er en smule surhed gemt godt væk, hvilket gør at øllen trods alt er drikbar, men bestemt ikke en Kriek jeg vil vende tilbage til igen og igen. oteyj (714), Canterbury, New Hampshire, USA Jul 25, 2009 Updated: Oct 1, 2009Garnet pour with one finger pink head. Aroma is of slightly sugary artificial cherries, and a hint of tartness. Flavor is quite sweet- cherries and only the slightest of tartness. Cloying and a bit artificial. Palate is smooth and pillowy with a very clean finish. Still can’t enjoy this after multiple attempts... IDunno19 (78), Ames, Iowa, USA Jul 21, 2009 My love affair with Lambics continues. Nose full of rich cherry, almost strawberry, and light oaky malts. Pours the same color as strawberry soda but with a more attractive hue (less in-your-face). Tastes like a delicious strawberry soda with characteristic malts and oak behind it. Awesome! dalek123 (103), Houston, Texas, USA Jul 18, 2009 Pours reddish with a pinkish, big, fizzy head. Nose is cherries and cough syrup. Taste is sweet cherries up front, with a tartness in the finish. Memorable and enjoyable. jrallen34 (123), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jul 17, 2009 I drank this from the bottle into a chalice. The bottle is capped but has a cork.
When I poured it poured a bright red, almost like hawaiin punch, but as it settled it was a dark blood red color. There was about a finger high pink head that disappated quickly. There is little lacing.
It smells very sweet, cherries are dominant, almost like cherry cough drops.
It tastes as sweet as it smells with again cherries dominating. WHat made this kriek great was the great sour note at the end.
Overall, a very good lambic. lithy (1600), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Jul 12, 2009 Dark ruby red, pinkish long lasting foam. Aroma is cherry cough syrup. Taste is sweet cherry, artificial cherry, lightly tart finish.
