Tasted at the Thursday RBSG Events on 7/9/09. This kriek pours a medium reddish color from a 750ml bottle. Small to medium sized white/pinkish foamy head. The aroma is tart and sweet cherries a touch of funk. A medium bodied sour/kriek. The malts are fruity and sweet, semi sweet and tart cheery. The hops are earthy. A little bit of funk, with some bitterness. Interesting. I would like to age this one a while and try it again. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and tart.

Dark red color with not much head. Aroma is cherry, sour candy. Flavor is more sour cherry candy sweetness. A bit acidic and has a sweetness to balance it out.

Split this giant wine sized bottle with Adrian910ss. The label was handwritten. 750 ml bottle. Pours a pinkish red colour with a creamy tan/beige head. Aroma of apple cider vinegar, tart cherries and funk. Flavour of apple cider vinegar is the dominate taste along with tart cherries, and funk. Very sour beer.

750ml bottle Opaque dark reddish-brown pour with a very light brown head, I thought that this was a tasty beer. The cherry flavor stands out nicely and is balanced with the tartness.

Bottle... Poured deep ruby/red/brown with a beige head. Tart, lactic and cherry aroma. Nicely dry and acidic palate. Fruity cherries, yeasty sourness, and a bread-like backbone. A little bit of a cider quality with a tart, souring finish.

Bottle. Pours a deep red brown with a ton of medium sized bubbles that disappear and a small faint brown head. Nice oak, mild cherry with some good tartness to it, earthy in aroma and taste. Real good Flanders Style!
