Bottled: Clear red coloured. On top a fantastic white head with a distinct red gleam. Distinct cherry aroma with a marzipan like sweetness. There is an apple undertone. Flavour is dry and light sour on top of the fruitsweetness. A bit sweet lambic, but well balanced. Dry and refreshing fruity end. Has good lasting. A bit too sweet for my likings, but still a very good beer.

(bottled as Souvenirs du terroir Kriek) Hazy red colour with a small red fizzy head. Aroma of black cherries and sugar. Flavour is quite sweet, cherry taste with only a slight tart bitterness. Quite lasting finish.

[Souvenirs du Terroir Kriek] The sweetest and most artificial Kriek I've ever had. This Kriek tastes exactly like some Danish cherry winegums (Haribos Kirsebær). My little sister would probably like it.

Bottle: Nearly artificially red coloured, lacing pink foam; strong sweet, almondy, fruity nose with a very sharp, sour touch; sweet flavour, light bodied, a bit sticky; sweet finish with some acidity and a faint tart aftertaste. Not unpleasant on hot summer days.....................

Bottled, 0.25ltr. A bit unclear, dark red with a small pink head leaving nice lacings. The aroma is artificial cherries and almond. Sweet flavor with artificial cherries, hints of almonds and some sugar. Sticky mouthfeel and a thin body. The finish is sugary and cherry-ish. (061019)

Sickeningly sweet cherry aroma bordering cough drops...Same body and dominance of sweetness as the Pêche, with the same bubbles who thankfully lighten the cloying sugar...Another pseudo-lambic, sugar prostitute...

Not a personal favorite of mine, but a favorite of my wife’s. A nice strong head and a very sweet bouquet and aroma. Definitely worth a try if you like sweet tasting beers.

Pink fading head over a gorgeous cloudy red beer. Smell of dark cherry, bitter almond, spiciness, and some flowers. Aroma is also very sweet. Flavour show intense sweetness, cherry, spice and a very faint sourness and other wild flavours. A tasty brew but tends to get treacly from the copious sweetness.
