Great beer to end an evening of bar hopping; first Bellwoods Brewery, next Get Well and the Indie Ale House, both on Dundas West; and finally Beer Bistro, on my walk home.

Not at all bad considering I had a bit of a freezing accident here. Starting to taste alright as it warms up. Smells oaky with lots of cherry. Pours ruby red with lots of pink lacing and head. Taste is fruity sweet, sour and a little bitter. Not super sour, actually. Decent beer to drink. Bottle.

LBarouf (107) - Aylmer, Quebec, CANADA - NOV 17, 2012
Pours a medium sized white head that dissipates quickly and a ruby body. Aroma of sour cherries. Flavours of initial sour and acidic cherry blending into a sweet dry finish. Good.

stobbe74 (3788) - DENMARK - NOV 17, 2012
Pours a clear and reddish brown beer with a white head. The aroma is cherries, fruit and some marzipan. The flavor follows the nose with additional sweetness. The palate is sweetness. Overall a good beer.

worldbeertaste (1119) - Lancashire, ENGLAND - NOV 17, 2012
Deep clear red with a foamy, lacy, red head. Very nice. Smells of cherry sourness with fruity berries. Prickly thin light body and a general dryness throughout. Tastes of sweet cherry with a strong bitter finish. Start off with an overall berry juice and a sour oak cherry and the moves to a dry cherry sour finish. Nice balance.

Red colour. Medium carbonation. Sweet cherry with some sour notes. Industrial Kriek with sweeteners and sugar.

cards04 (821) - Steinbach, Manitoba, CANADA - NOV 7, 2012
Pours a pinkish/reddish/brown...with pretty light pink head. Nice lacing. Smells like cherry kool-aid. Some cherry sweetness...followed by prominent sour. Not bad..

northropfrye (1347) - Steinbach, Manitoba, CANADA - NOV 4, 2012
Strong cherry aroma, a bit candyish, a touch of tartness. Red in colour. Taste is less pronounced, not as sweet as you’d expect. Not bad.

Cherry tasting with a sour aftertaste, a good example of the style and takes me back to Belgium

maley1 (470) - calgary, Alberta, CANADA - OCT 14, 2012
Bright red clear pour with pinkish frothy head. Aroma of tart cherries galore. Taste is tart sour cherries turning slightly sweet in the middle and then finishing with another tart kick with some dryness. Soft carbonation and a really mouth puckering kick. Good kriek.
