Nov 29, 2008 Small white head atop a shimmering, opaque grapefruit-center color. Nice bod! Nose is bitingly sour and dirty with cherry, earth, and dusty barn. Flavor has loads of fruit in it with some sour barn qualities. Very refreshing. Quite a creamy body and not nearly as crisp as I’d expect. Another nice one from Cantillon.

Nov 28, 2008 Cloudy ruby red. Scant pinkish head. Aroma of sour cherries and lemon. Sour cherry taste with musty dryness. Ages extremely well. A classic kriek, in a league of its own.

Nov 27, 2008 Pours out amber-redish with no head. Smells of vineager and fruit. Taste is tart and crisp. Nice sour finish, with notes of wood, cherries, and funk. Great stuff.

Nov 27, 2008 Bottle into snifter. (Thanks to Roger of Rich O’s, who is the man!). This pours a deep rich ruby red – very appealing tone. Its nose and flavor are funky with that tart sour (jolly rancher-like) traditional kriek flavor. Good stuff.

Nov 21, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a cherry red with no head. Aromas of funky barnyard yeast, cherries, and......charbroiled meats? Flavors of wild yeast, cherry, fruit. Plate seems a bit thin, but what do I know? Overall a great drinking lambic.

Oct 31, 2008 Updated: Feb 3, 2009Can´t give it as much as the geuze for some reason. Tasted after tour of brewery. Very cherry but very dry which is great. These people really know what they´re doing.
Re-rate - this is available at Plonk in Canberra!!! Wow. I want to die from this beer.

Oct 22, 2008 Not as good as the gueuze, but still quite a nice beer. Beautiful appearance. A little more tart than I would have preferred, but not bad.
This beer poured ruby red and opaque, with head of tiny white bubbles contrasting the red body...gorgeous. Aroma was gueuze-like with some barnyard funk. Flavor was just slightly sweet, very tart, but not as fruity as I expected. Mouthfeel was clean but not crisp...lingers in the mouth and throat.
Pretty good, but not as good as the Cantillon Gueuze. I had this at the Cantillon brewery in Anderlecht, in the Brussels suburbs.
