Belle-Vue Kriek Extra

Brewed by Belle-Vue (InBev)
Style: Lambic - Fruit
Sint-Pieters-Leeuw, Belgium

25cl bottle poured into a flute glass. Red with ample pink head. Aroma is cherries and cough syrup. Flavor is the same. Medium carbonation. Sticky mouthfeel. Not for me.

25cl bottle. pmours reddish, pink head. aroma is loaded with cherries and sweetness. Taste, cherries, with a grainy after taste, lightly sweetned and a tingly sour finish on the palate. Just feels like sweetner was added to the final mix.

25cl in a plastic cup, not sure if it’s from tap or bottle. Clear deep cherry red colour, light pink head. Aroma of cherry and marzipan. Flavour is sweet, light sour, cherries, some marzipan. Light sweet-sour finish. Light to medium bodied. OK.

Bottle, 25cl. Dark red, but rather clear colour with some bubbles nicely rising. There is beautiful white head that becomes a small white head lasting nicely. The aroma is not as strong as you should expect, but you can taste cherries. The taste also excists of cherries, but is only, surprisingly only light sweet. Even more: you can taste the lambic very well, wherefrom the aftertaste becomes light agreeable sour. However, the taste stays the same the whole beer and is not as penetrating as e.g. a St Louis. Maybe a bit artificial(?)

Clear red with a medium pinkish head. Aroma had hints of cherries and almonds. Flavour had artificial cherries, almonds, apples and hints brett.

25 cl Bottle. Lovely dark color with medium pink head. Nice aroma of cherries. The flavor is a bit of a let down as it is a bit artificially and not as strong as the aroma implies. Sweet and not sour at all.

25cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex sweet Kriek, balanced, clear, good head, nothing special, too sweet

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts very fruity, the finish is a bit weaker, a little bit dry. A bit too sweet.
