Bottle - shared with Jacob, Bager & Mette. Deep red. Cherry, smooth, fruity, high sourness - ruins your gums - dries them out !!

75 cl bottle. Deep cherry-red color nice head: compact, and strawberry ice-cream color. As for the aroma,a classic kriek nose of almonds, and of course cherry, feels very natural. Flavor is at first dry, then sour a very satisfiyng finish. It’s well balanced? As for the palate, round and full. I want more! A very; very good kriekbeer !

(375 ml bottle (best before 3/4/23 (now that’s a shelf life!)) from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/maryland/baltim target=blank>Wells Discount Liquors) Fizzy sour cherries...Pours cloudy red with about two fingers of light red head. Some initial effervescence. Aroma is sour cherry and funk. Mouthfeel is soft, light and fizzy (i.e., soft fizziness). Some rings of lacing. Flavor is sourish cherry and cheesy funk, maybe sweetens a little as it warms. Didn’t really care for flavor of this, although flavor is kind of weak. Tastes kind of "old". Hard to rate.

Bottle courtesy of willblake, thanks again! Ruby red pour with a pinkish, fizzy head. Aroma of barnyard funk, sour cherry and some other fruitiness. Flavor of sour, some funk, yest and some cherry as well. Lively carbonation with sort of a juicy mouthfeel that finishes pretty dry. Not bad, even though I’m not big on funk.

Bottle: Ruby red color with a big pink head. Aroma, sour cherries, some sugar. Flavor, tart and sour cherries up front. The sourness on this was a lot sharper than I usually like.

Bottle via csbosox (thanks!). My first lambic..woohoo...Pours a hazy dark reddish brown. Nose is sour cherries/apples. Taste is sour cherries, apples, strawberries and vanilla. Well carbonated. Tasty. But i will take a New Glarus Unpluuged Cherry anyday over this.

Pours a deep cloudy rouge with a lovely and surprisingly, lasting pink/purple head. Aroma is ripe cherries, very little funk, a quick tart acidity and an almond note. The body is unique in it’s fullness although the overall affect is dry and highly carbonated. The flavor is incredibly full of the ripe cherries. Tons of them, some vanilla and almond, and a big wallop of acidity, though it is well-balanced. An excellent example of the style. Just excellent.
