2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
This not my type of beer. It is a cherry flavored Lambic. The sweet beer lacks the bitterness that I enjoy. The Kriek poured a deep cherry red with a pinkish frothy head. This was a christmas gift that waited in the refrigerator until I was ready. The spontaneous fermentation is a fascinating method of making beer.

While I have had other beers with a cork stopper, this was the first one that I needed a cork-screw to open. Pour was nice cherry with a thin pink head. The aroma was cherry cough syrup. Luckily the taste was far better than the scent. A tart cherry drink that gets better with each swallow while leaving substantial lacing on the glass. What a delight.

375mL bottle from LCBO. Pours clear ruby red with a cotton-candy pink head. Has the slight cough-syrup aroma one would expect from a cherry beer. But the similarities with cough-syrup stop there; unlike other cherry beers, this one does not taste like cough-syrup. Sweet cherries up front, with a tangy tart finish; very tasty!
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Very good. The nose is cherry syrup and tartness. The beer is deep red with a pink head which leaves long lacing. The taste is a wonderful tart cherry. The body is medium thin with just the right tart smack. Good.
4.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
Pours fizzy dark pink with a large light pink head. Smells exclusively of cherries. Taste follows the nose perfectly; cherries with a hint of maltiness and slight tartness. Light-bodied with a prickly texture and lots of carbonation; Lindemans Kriek with a slight astringency and fruitiness.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark red body with a great pink head. Very nice aroma of fresh cherries and sour cherries. Sweet, refreshing flavour with cherries.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Red pour with hints of blue, white head and lace. Aroma is huge sour cherries. Starts out with the sour cherry goes to a tart then fades to a flat dried cherry almost stale flavor. Medium bodied with aggressive carbonation. A beer I really like and could drink all the time. Very nice

0,375l bottle from Belgium as gift. A very old one, I’ve got it years before. That’s why I can feel the aroma of the cork. By the way it’s a nice fruity one. Light claret color with pink head. Sweet cherry odor. Cherry aroma with a little grain. Medium cherry sour taste, like the fruit. I like it, when I can feel the taste of the fruit and the sugar doesn’t desturb it. Light body with soft carbonation and slick texture. Long sour-sweet cherry finish.
