Sep 24, 2007 Red colour, pink small head. Aroma of cherry, earth, barnyard and horseblanket. Taste is of sour cherries. Sourness fades away along the way, leaving a pleasant cherry taste behind. Pleasantly refreshing.

Sep 19, 2007 375 ml bottle, bottled 02 Dec 2005. Aroma of sour and of cherry. Beautiful ruby red color with no head to mention. Thin in body; very mild in carbonation. It is sour. After awhile cherry is present. The finish is very dry, decently sour, and dark cherry. There is a woody impression accompanying the sour. Seems to be oak. A very nice lambic.

Sep 19, 2007 Updated: Nov 30, 2007Lambic, yum. This one did not disappoint; opaque red with a thin head but lots of bubbles, tart sweet flavor that you expect from a kriek and, a clean dry finish. Nothing too special but still real good. Note: I really like lambics, as long as they are decent I’m very happy.

Sep 7, 2007 Thanks to Guerde for sharing! The beer had a nice red color with a lot of carbonation. The aroma was sour, earthy, with mild cherries and some barnyard funk. There was a nice amount of sourness and cherries in the taste with a little bit of earthiness. Had a sour/cherry finish.

Sep 6, 2007 (bottle) Pours dark red with a light red head. For the first time I got the strong barnyard aroma that I’ve seen on so many other ratings, and I found it to be quite pleasant. There was not just barnyard to the smell, but also a nice sweet cherry undertone with some sourness as well. The taste was very sour and tart, slightly oaky, and had a nice subdued sweet cherry flavor too. This was a solid lambic.

Sep 5, 2007 Bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki, Lambic days 2007)
Rich deep pink/red, slightly cloudy. Slightly sour aroma, slightly winey and cherry too - finally! Taste quite different - strong sharp bitter - very oude and woody sour. Hints of fruit too - very pleasant.

Sep 4, 2007 Thanks to Guerde for sharing. A nice, dark red color to this beer. Very little sediment that I can see. The aroma is quite nice, some barnyard and horseblanket, yeast, and unmistakable cherry with an overall aroma that promises a sour treat. Not as sour as I expected however. The Scharbekse is much more sour than this, while this beer has a great balance of lambic but also fruit, yeast, and sugar, but it tastes like real incidental sweetness rather than added sugar. Quite nice.
