Jan 16, 2005 Cloudy, pinkish orange color with a light pink head. Barnyard funk and sour cherry aroma. Extremely sour cherry, barnyard funk, hay and lemon flavors. Very crisp, tingly feel with an extremely dry sour finish. Very good!

Jan 16, 2005 Cloudy, murky deep amber color with a pinkish head. The aroma was real funky...barnyard funkiness...hay, wet animal fur, tart cherries. The flavor was quite tart (me likes)...cherries, lemon powder, grass. The feel was very crisp and completely dry. Thanks BBB63!

does not count  Dec 26, 2004 Beautifuly red in color with a pink head. The nose is tart with the obvious smell of cherries. to the first tast it folowed thru with classic lambic sour tast followed by charries and all brought together with the sweet smaking of my lips. the beer seems to be very carbinated for a kriek in general let alone one a couple of years old. Delicieous and Unforgetable my favoriet Kriek.

Dec 21, 2004 Updated: Feb 5, 2007Nieuw, na de ’herrijzenis’. 37.5 cl fles, gebotteld in september 2006. Diep robijnrood met een wandklevend roos schuim. De droge, zurige, leerachtige aroma’s van de geuze zijn ook hier terug te vinden, hoewel zachter en met een aromatische kruidige toets. Krieken zweven ergens in de verte en komen beter tot hun recht in de smaak. Deze is overigens droog doch heel licht zurig en wordt gevolgd door een tamelijk lange bittere nasmaak van de pitten. Het mondgevoel begint prikkelend en eindigt wat astringent. Old rating: 37.5 cl bottle, bbe 3 Dec 2023. Ruby red, unexpectedly hazy and foamy for a fruit lambic. In the nose, cinnamon and pepper are present, along with some remarkable, but still gentle, acidity. Acidic and woody flavour with a very gently bitter aftertaste, with cherries present all the way. Chewy palate, maybe a bit too simple. Give me more. 8-5-8-4-17 (4.2)

Dec 14, 2004 Pours a fairly clear ruby body with a frothy white head that is tinged pink. The aroma is sour and very cherry with a slight medicinal character and something slightly cheesy that I keep catching occassionally. The flavor is fairly sour and the cherries come through nicely, but there’s not a whole lot backing it up except for a slightly metallic sourness. The palate is big-bubbled and soda-like.

Dec 12, 2004 Pour alternates between fluffy head and no head, with a deep pink underbelly that matches the color of the label. Aroma is soft and tart, with a little spring floral kick. Flavor is understated and not overy complex, but balanced between the lambic and cherries. Tart rather than sour, and dry rather than sweet. Finish is fantastic and dry, with an exceptionally live palate.

Dec 8, 2004 Pours a watery pink with a sizable head. Nice sour notes but seemed a little weak to me. Still very good however.
