Draught @ WSF 2008. Dark burgundy with no head. Sour aroma with natural cherries. Sour cherries, wood and barnyard notes in the flavor. Ends sour.

(3/10/08) On tap at Drie Fonteinen restaurant in Beersel. Deep red, almost opaque, with medium pink head. Aroma of cherries, a bit medicinal with hints of funk. Flavor is sourish with some medicinal notes, cherries, some citrus and some sweetness as well. Light to medium body. Quite good but definitely not great.

2008-03-07. Dark ruby red body with a large foamy pink head. Sweet cherry aroma is a tad simplistic, light musty notes. Flavour similarly starts with a strong dose of sweet cherries, and a very lightly finky sourness that slowly builds as it moves into the finish and aftertaste. (7+) Average palate. Pleasant.
On tap at 3 Fonteinen, Beersel

Weekend of spontaneous fermentation 07’.

Pours a pretty deep red with no head. Light redskin aroma, shows quite a bit of sweetness, fruity candy like. Flavours are not sour at all, a lot of grapeskin and chewy cherries. Vineous, sour finish. Very interesting to try, pretty simple but pleasing all the same.

Draught @ WSF. Blood red with no head. Faint aroma of cherries and hay, a tad medicinal. Tastes much like biting into a black cherry, strong and slightly bitter. Good but I prefer the Oude Kriek

on cask @ Brussels 9th Belgian Beer weekend. pours ruby with big bright pink head, never seen a head this pink! i really didn’t get much of a nose, mostly cherry pits. subtle funk to it. flavor isn’t very sour or tart, a sorta flabby cherry flavor that almost seems artifical. this isn’t very sour, tart, or funky. mouth feel a tad watery, very low acidity. a good kriek but not up to 3 Fonteinen standards.
