3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
375ml bottle from the LCBO. Pours a very nice ruby red with a large, pale pink head. Aroma: Very nice cherries, on top of some grapes and with a nice undertone of yeast and wheat. It smells amazing! Flavour: Nice sour tartness upfront carried by sweet fruity elements, and malts. Finishes strong with woodiness, cherry and malts. This is a really tasty beer. A great treat and I’m glad it’s a general listing now as I’ll be buying more.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
375 ml bottle- Decants a cherry red topped with a slightly pink foamy cap. In the nose, I get cherries, yeast, some wood, and a tart fruit. The taste is predominantly sour cherry with woody, yeasty components, add in tart white grapes. Astringent and puckering, with nice sour fruit finish. A good summer patio beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
375 ml bottle - pours a rosy-rose colour with a very pleasing fluffy pink head that leaves a nice lace. Aroma has a funky sourness and sour cherry - but this is clearly cherry syrup (as the bottle, to its credit, states), not real cherry. Nice, nonetheless. Flavour is slightly medicinal, with sour cherry, and some yeastiness as well. Noting sensational, and I prefer the Framboise to this, but it makes a nice light spring sipper. I will get this again.

Draft. Amber, head etc. Really refreshing and a very good kriek. Sweet but not overly so IMO.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle from Belgium shared with Drewbeerme. Amber with red tint with large white head. Aroma is yeast, sweet cherry (almost soda/coolaid like) and grainy. Flavor is sweet cheery once again and kind of fake tasting. Medium body and well carbonated. This might have been good originally but now is a very poor example of the style.

bottle. thanks to xnoxhatex for the sample. Pours an odd amber-copper color with off white head. Nose is interesting yeast, old, musty, some odd artifical cherry aroma. Flavor is much of the same, flavor is sweet but not overly so, cherry notes are faint and fake tasting, a pretty bad mess of flavors with nothing dominating. Blah. 2.8.

25 cl Bottle. Colour is red/pink and has a very nice white head. Aroma is pure sweetness with cherrish dominating. In the tate is sweet cherrish and sourness. A very good sample of the Kriek.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Contém os elementos característicos de uma Lambic (avinagrada e salgada), mas no paladar revela-se doce e agradável. Lembra a Cantillon, só que com açúcar.
