| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 12, 2009 Sampled at Cantillon brewery museum: Cherry nose and flavor really come through to tame the Cantillon’s notoriously sour lambic. Braudog (3773), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | Jul 9, 2009 From a bottle, at a beer dinner at Ol Factory Cafe, served with an oven-roasted pork tenderloin (not quite the best pairing). This is a big-time sour beer, even more sour than the Duchess they served right beforehand. Not a fruity lambic at all, despite the label. (#3592, June 2009) Madsnp (627), Odense C, Denmark

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 30, 2009 2008 bottle from Bier Planet, Brussels.
bottled 24 oct, ’08
pours a suptuous red/rubby with a thin fizzy pink head. served at 13°c cellar temp.
aroma of morello became more prominent as beer was in room temp. some acidic/vinegary hints are also presnt.
taste, morello, sour that just doesn’t become too much to handle.
Once the acidic/sour mouthfeel is past, teh nice and subtle palate of morello sets in and covers the palate.
the hops give the beer a nice floral feel.
Overall low carbonation. Probably missing some other elements but it’s just a wonderfully well carfted beer and a style that takes time to be enjoyed and fully appreciated. eManu (205), Brussels, Belgium

Flavors are very sour and tart cherry with a oak note and a spicy and a very dry ending. A very strong flavors but a very elegant Kriek overall. grandet (486), Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA
