Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - MAR 14, 2004
A clear red beer with a huge beutiful pink head. The aroma is totally dominated by cherries. The flavor is also dominated by cherries, but on a woody background and hints of sourness. It is only hints of the wild fermentation - and that is a little sad. Drink it cold as an apperitif - but don't expect a real lambic from this beer.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUN 10, 2005
UPDATED: NOV 19, 2005 (Bottle 37,5 cl) Comes as "Foudroyante Kriek" - the name used by Lindemans on the French market. Very pretty, deep red colour with a lovely pink head. Pronounced cherry in the nose - apparently with no less than 25% fruit (both whole cherries and cherry juice). Rather sweet and cherry-flavoured with an underlying tartness from the Lambuc. Unfortunately also with artificial sweeteners and aroma. Shame on you. 260603

25 cL bottle (Souvenirs du Terroir Kriek (s Lands Souvenirs Kriek 3.5% ABV)). Pours dark brown with a red hue and a creamy light brown/pink head. Clear cherry flavoured with a little apple sourness. Flavour is sweet cherries with a peppery twist. Lovely sweet sour. Sweet sour finish. Simple kriek, nice.

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - APR 4, 2002
Deep red with semi-sweet, fresh cherry flavour. Refreshing, but far from the complexity of Girardin’s or Boon’s interpretations of the style.

joergen (13935) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - NOV 1, 2005

MiP (11256) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - FEB 29, 2008
Bottle, 3.5%. Sweet, very fat cherry aroma. Clear dark red colour. Small pink head. The flavour is quite sweet with a distinct cherry note. Quite a lot of cherry bubble gum. OK tartness that tries to balance off the sweetness. Not sour enough, but making it drinkable and even enjoyable.
