Oud Beersel Oude Kriek

[Portland International Beer Festival – Tap] A dark reddish colored brew with no head. This was a great flavored brew. Loved the cherry flavor and the spices that I could taste. A easy to drink and a great beer for the wife to drink. Semi sour this was a great Lambic and one to serve to all.

Bottle. Hazy reddish colour with a big off-white head. Sour fruity aroma with hints of cherries. Sweet malty and fruity cherry flavor. Sweet malty finish with some cherry hints.

Hazy reddish brown with a bubbly small pink head. Sour berry aroma, earthy, bubbly mouthfeel, tart and quite acidic. Finishes somewhat musty.

Pours a bright rosy red into a tumbler. Slight head hugs the rim. Sharp lambic notes -- no sign of the kriek. Sharp lactic sour patch with very slight sour cherry undertone. Lasting lactic finish. Very enjoyable and refreshing.

375ml bottle. Best before 3/12/2023. Pours light pinkish brown with a nice, rocky, light pink head. Mostly lasting, nice lacing. Heavy horse blacket nose with some smoke and cheese. Sour, overriped cherries live just below the surface, some light lactic notes. The flavor is musty, pineapple brett, cheesey, cherries come through well, very clean lactic acidity. The mouthfeel is light and lively, but slightly dirty. Finish is dry and tart with a lingering taste of cherry.

Best before 03 12 2023, phew, just made it in time, 20 01 2005, lol. Poured a nice red rosey pink color with a pretty creamy pink head that laced beautifully. The aroma was light funk and light cherries. The flavor was tart, sour, funky off wheat, some barn and hay, and very light sour cherries. This one isn’t all that fruity and certainly has nothing sweet about it. Mouthfeel was moderate to heavy for the style, a nice hearty carbonated fruit lambic.

On tap at Ortinos Northside. Pours a hazy dark pinkish orange with an average off white bubbly head. Aroma of tart cherry, strawberry, sweet malt, yeast and cherry pie filling in addition to a light sourness. Flavor of tart cherry and raspberry, lightly sour, foral, nice tartness. What a great desert beer. Serve this with a piece of chocolate cake and you are set.

Bottle. Very acidic aroma with a hint of cherries. Almost clear, beautiful red colour. Small pink head. The flavour is quite bitter, but not very acidic. Also has some earthiness and of course cherries. The aftertaste is harshly bitter. Mouthfeel is very swelling.
