A dark red colour with a small red-white head. Sweet and sour taste. If you are more into sour trie the 37.5cl corked bottle, the 25cl bottle is sweeter. (Bottle 25cl, corked bottle 37.5cl)

25 cl bottle. Bright mahogany color with a pinkish white head that went down fast. Cherry aroma. Not particularly sweet or sour aroma. Medium body with coarse carbonation. Slightly sour, but also slightly sweet, cherry. Barring the cherry it could be a red wine. Finishes rather dry. Certainly not one of the soda pop fruit lambics. Finishes rather tart.

Crisp cherry nose. Deep maroon colour with a decent white foamy head. Cherryade flavour with a delicate acidity and malty, oaky, ironish tones.

Bottle. Sweet cherry-like aroma with some hints of sour acidity in the nose as well. There are also sour apple notes as well. Pretty pleasant aroma. Hazy copper/brown color with a small tan head. Pretty damn ugly compared to the Lou Pepe I had last week. Mild acidity and lactic notes to start, quickly followed by sweet cherries...almost medicinal in nature. Finishes a bit roasted and bitter. The cherries work in this beer like the cherry flavor works in Amoxicillin. It feels as though the fruit is trying to hide something as opposed to working with something. This is very drinkable though, but it just doesn’t jive with my palate.

Deep red colour with a thick and foamy but mostly diminishing pink tinted head. Sour cherry aroma. Flavour of tart and sweet cherries. Palate is flat and light but refreshing.

As La Becasse Kriek. Dark red with an off-white head. Aromas are cherry drops sweets with hints of musty sourness. Flavours are sweet cherries followed by, er, not much. Its more factory than farmyard, which is a shame. Is this a real airbourne yeast fermented beer? It seems too sterile. As a sweet cherry beer it is OK, as a lambic, not.

Bubbly and sweet with a sherbert taste. Farily disappointing.
