BB 4/14/2026 Strongly smells of ass and vinegar. Worst smell ever. Ruby red, thick pink head. Extremely sour. Once the initial shock subsides, there are cherries and cranberries at midpalate. Almost undrinkably sour with a horridly off smell. I can appreciate a good sour beer, but this just didn’t taste good.

Tremendous kriek with excellent flavors of cherries and citrus. Mild sour taste balanced out by a sweetness. Wonderful deep red color and light pink foamy head. Very good, I will purchase again!

Bottle. Pours a gorgeous ruby red with a fizzy light pink (almost lavender) head. Funky barnyard first on the nose, followed by tart cherries. Quite sour to taste, tart and strong cherries as well. Very nicely carbed, tart, puckering, and dry. Delightful.

Pours a dark burgundy in color. There’s a pinkish/white head that forms. Plenty of carbonation on the pour. Smell is cherry and all kinds of funky, tart. Taste is more of the cherry and funk, but the cherries have more of a "green" taste. Good carbonation again in the mouthfeel. Very tart and funky lambic. I like it.

Red color clear with a almost pink colored head. Smells of tartness, funky sour, cherries, and other fruits. Taste is the same as the smell. Nice and dry. Good beer.
