Cherry cough drop nose that - a little too medicinal. Deep red color that’s not as nice as their other fruit lambics. Decent cherry taste that very sweet.

I know I’m probably in the closet, but I love all of Lindeman’s stuff and the Kriek is a personal favorite....though i like to mix it with stout. Tatse great and has a nice bubbly, happy mouthfeel.

[capped and corked 12 oz. bottle] Pours a light red color with a thick and fluffy pink head. Aroma is very earthy with strong hints of cherry. Extremely sweet taste of cherries and syrup with a bubbly body reminiscent of champagne and a slight bitter twinge at the end.

Finally getting around to this one...dark rose color with full fizzy pink head. Aroma strong with cherry and malt. Some leather. Sweet cherry and barnyard first in the mouth. Puckering tartness closes it up with a drying finish. Palate adjusts rapidly to the tartness, softening it into a drinkable twinge. Fruit a bit overdone but otherwise funky enough to acknowledge. Still, its a world away from the best lambics - and I didn't bother finishing it.

Bottle at Fall Beerfest In Toronto 2004. Deep cherry colour. Aroma was intensely sweet with lots of cherries. Flavour was very sweet again, lots of cherries and lacking in sourness and tartness that I love in lambics. Medium body and medium carbonation. Finishes very sweet with a little tartness, dry.

Pours purple with a large soapy pink head. The aroma has sweet cherries ~ Luden’s cough drops? candied maricino cherries? There is also light spiciness. Medium / thin crisp refreshing body with some light sharp carbonation. The taste is similar to the aroma with a bit more spice and a hint of tartness. The finish is definitely on the sweet side like the aroma. Good for a fruit beer.
