Bottle at Oud Arsenaal, vintage 2003. A flimsy and lackluster representation of the style. Rich, sweetened honey aroma. A hint of funk. Overcarbonated, lightly sour. Minerals, strawberry and raspberry, metals. A bit spongy, rocky. Blech.

Red colour, short pink head. Aroma has cherry, marsipan and some sourness. Cherry fruits in flavour. Lots of sourness and carbonation, but ends sweet. Nice.

Lovely color is inviting. Mild, dry, and fruit forward in nose and taste. But the Boon lambic is not sour enough for me.

bottled. rich red colour with a short-lived pink head. aroma of redskins, capers, cherry syrup, plenty of citric and random sourness, some cherry stone character. made my stomach rumble which is usually the sign of a potent lambic

WBF. Pours a pinkish brew with a pink head. The aroma is spicy, cherry, sweet, acidic, aged feel. Tastes sour and acidic, cherry bite, nice. Crisp carbonation.

2004 Vintage drunk at first BAP festival at Bruge. Nice and good tasting real kriek beer. A good combination of sweet and sour

2004 vintage. Pours with a brilliant Rose clarity and a hiss of suds. Head recedes to a halo. Dankness, funk, sherbet, a dab of vinegar on the nose. Tingles with juicy, whole fruit sourness and sparkle. A faint creaminess lurking in the background. Mildly acidic and very mellow at 6.5%. Gaviscon chaser not required. Puckering, tangy and lovely.

2003 bottle @ oud arsennal, antwerp. listed as and bartender (i think owner) confirmed it was the marriage parfait version. of course, it was not. and it was exactly pictured as it is here. oh well...pours clear bright red with pink head. nose is very sharp cherries. flavor is extremely acidic then harsh with cherries and finishes really fizzy in the mouth with not much reward. too much fruit makes this less sour. the fizzy and acitic feel ended up growing on me.
