Deep red color with huge red creamy head, lace. Not very strong earthy cherry aroma. Sourish cherry juice flavor, slightly earthy. Medium-bodied. Finishing to sharp tartness. Dry aftertaste. More or less ok kriek but not very complex. (6/4/7/3/13 3.3)

Clear pinky red color, good cherry reddish head, lace. Cherry caramel aroma with light tartness. Light sourness in otherwise sweetish kriek, notes of cherry stone. Mouthfeel is a bit thin. Should be more tart. (7/3/7/3/13 3.3) IslandHaole (1035), Onna-Son, Okinawa-Ken, Japan Jan 28, 2005 A Reddish color brew with Orangey tints. Odd lumpy, spotty foam head. A sweet and sour aroma, dominated of course by cherries but with some oakiness too. Closer to the sweetness of a Belle-Vue than the tartness of Cantillon. I’m starting to enjoy these Lambics! kook (2034), Perth, Western Australia, Australia Jan 4, 2005 Poured red with a lasting pink head. Light cherry aroma with a hint of dustiness. Sweet cherry with a dry yet not tart finish. A bit chalky actually. Medium bodied. Ok but nothing special. ohknaks (44), USA Dec 25, 2004 .5 L bottle: Pours a solid red in the glass with a thick white head. Tastes distinctly of cherry, which is a welcome addition to the standard beer, although I wouldn’t have it every day. badgerben (3586), Blaine, Minnesota, USA Oct 26, 2004 Red color with a tall, pinkish head. Solid cherry aroma. Quite a sour cherry taste with hints of wheat. The sour can be a bit offensive at the start, but mellows over a few minutes in the glass. Tasty. robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA Oct 23, 2004 Nice Red Coloring. Foamy White/Pink Head. Cherry Aroma.. Some Carbonation Right Off The Get-Go...Cherry Flavor Comes In...Little Dry at The End... But Very Enjoyable Lambic..and Better than Lindemans I would Say. dirkules (613), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Oct 21, 2004 This is an well crafted lambic. Not by any stretch the best of the best, but it definitely delivers on cherrys and a dusty mature flavour. bitter (1137), Henderson, Nevada, USA Aug 16, 2004 bottled: pours red pink with a huge pink/white head that bubbles with lots of effervesence. nose is mostly of fruit as we would all expect and cherries as we would all expect. follows through into the palate lots of prickly sour cherry flavor. as with the other mort subite not the upper crust of lambics but still okay...im not crazy about this kriek.
