UPDATED: AUG 9, 2022 Robe rouge assez sombre, mousse rosée. Nez différent de la kriek classique, avec des pointes plus fermentaires, même si on sent très bien le fruit. En bouche, de la cerise, très profonde, acidité bien maîtrisée, texture beaucoup plus lisse qu'attendu.

UPDATED: FEB 11, 2022 Aromat wiśniowy, kwaskowy, dziki, skórzany. Barwa czerwona, zmętniona. Piana różowa, drobno pęcherzykowa, umiarkowanej wielkości i podobnie trwała. Smak jeszcze lepszy bardziej wiśniowy, pestkowy, lekko ciastkowy. Bardzo dobry. Tutaj nieco mniej kwaskowości, ale piwo przez to chyba zyskuje. Bardzo dobry kriek.
