Draft @ ACBF 2012, Moen.
Couleur rougeâtre/acajou, col blanc fin.
Arôme de cerise en aspect noyau et peau avec léger tanin.
En bouche, cerise sur aigreur fruitée et pointe de malt. Sec en bouche avec une pointe de levure. Plus forte en alcool qui si comparée à la version Alvinne Kriek de Mortagne reste un peu en retrait. Reste une sour très agréable avec un beau profile fruité de cerise qui sont mises bien en avant.

12oz bottle from secret santa 2011. Ruby brown with an almost non-existant head that disappears pretty much instantly. Funk, light sour with a bit of tang although not overwhelming, cherry. Moderately low carbonation and body, slight and growing sour with acidic, becomes dry, with some cherry, combination of light funk and more sour. Quite nice.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Koelschtrinker (8479) - Köln (Cologne), GERMANY - FEB 7, 2012
Der kirschige Säureantrunk ist ziemlich wässrig, was angesichts der gelungenen Aromen schade ist. Die Aromen werden mit der Zeit zwar stärker, bleiben aber weit unter dem, was ich mir wünsche. Mild, permanent trocken, zunehmende Bitterkeit. Gelungen. 6/9/11/7/11/9

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 kramer (3875) - Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 25, 2011
Bottle, Kulminator. Pours a clear ruby red body with a nice fizzy one inch pink tinged head. The nose is bretty and funky with some minimal cherry. Doesn’t smell acetic or sour at all, just funky. The flavor is dry and funky, tons of brett, just a touch of fruitiness on the finish, but no sweetness at all. More dry and pitty than fruity. Zero acetic acid, just tons of funk. Mouthfeel is fully attenuated and completely dry with fizzy soft carbonation. Not overly lively. Very nice well-rounded ’wild’ ale. I like it a lot.
