omhper (12155), Stockholm, Sweden May 9, 2007 Bottled. Clear red, rich pale pink head. Vague cherry syrup aroma. Very sweet and light bodied with syrupy mouthfeel.

Very nice. Finish is tart cherries. .Full bodied. Great beer. sayravai (3720), Helsinki, Finland Mar 16, 2007 (Bottled) Hazy amberish red with a medium, pinkish, creamy and lacy head. Sourish aroma of vomit and cherries, which fades away in a while, leaving some cherry-raspberry aroma. Slightly sweet, quite dull cherry-wheaty flavor with some straw- and raspberries. Light to medium-bodied, neutral-sweetish palate with foamy carbonation. A quite tasteless and boring kriek - not a sugar bomb, but not tart and traditional, either. Poperinge (359), Cowtown, Alberta, Canada Mar 4, 2007 Bottle of this at Waagstruk in Antwerp thought it was to sweet especially after having the Liefman’s Kriek on tap. Page 327 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide and only 313 of his 500 Classic Brews to go. DruncanVeasey (2695), The Penguin’s Arms, Europe, Warwickshire, England Feb 10, 2007 Plenty going on here. Strikingly clear, red-amber pour for a Kriek. Rocky suds and layers of lace. Distinctly vinegary, woody cherry sourness in the nose. Not at all perfumey. Opens with a definite note of peaty, whiskeyish malt graininess. Tingling cherry sharpness in the middle, with a drawn-out, sweetly biscuity afternose. The malt whiskeyish flavours are at least as assertive as the Lambic. Strange and unprecedented. raymondwave (867), Finland Feb 3, 2007 I’m not quite sure about this. It’s almost like drinking lemonade. It’s got nice sour cherrylike taste and a nice fizzy mouthfeel. But it kindof tastes like an alcopop doesn’t it? The fact that it’s a real brew ofcourse rises the score, because to speak the truth, it’s not bad at all.
