Bottle poured ruby red with a short offwhite head. Aromas of cherries, sugar, a touch of caramel, and some funk. Flavor is big tart cherries, some sourness, and alot like a cherry cough drop. Slight bitterness at the finish. Palate is fizzy like a soda almost.. Tickles the tongue.

Red, very tart, delicious. Pretty much the standard for this style, if just because of the availability. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

Bottle. Poured red with a pick head. Big aroma and flavor of cherries and sweetness. Medium to full body. Enjoyable to even those that are not craft beer drinkers. Made a great alternate from the usual Champaign for the New Years Eve midnight toast!

Another good Lambic, but not the best. It almos has a cherry cough drop taste to it, along with a little bitterness.

Bottle, 0,25l. brown/red colour, pink small head. Cirtus, raspberry, cherry and apple in the aroma. Fantastic. Taste cherry, citrus. Nice bitter aftertaste.

Bottle @ Coles Buffalo, NY. Very sweet nose with deep red color. Not a huge lambic fan but like this one a lot.

375 ml bottle. Pours out a bright red color with a thick creamy white head on it. Smell is mostly dominated by cherries, not really much of a musty earthy smell that I have come to really appreciate in lambic beers. Taste is mostly sweet, not sour at all, and cherry. Its good, but its not as good as other kriek beers that are sour. The sour thing is what gets me into the lambics. This is more like a fruit beer - but i was expecting a lambic. Oh well, still, not bad, and something I would never turn down if given another bottle.
