| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jun 21, 2009 Purplish red and flat. Light cherry with some balsamic stuff on the nose. Vinegary, with fresh cherry. Fairly full body but refreshing. Some candyish notes but this is not sweet, just juicy and fairly complex. Almost yoghurty in the finish, and a bit toasty as well. fiulijn (7370), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 15, 2007 Cloudy red color. The aroma, yet very sour, has a sharp cherry (with some sweetness) and cherry kernel imprint. The mouthfeel is extremely harsh, astringent, with real cherry squash; and with a very strong lemony (acid) final. Difficult, but real. KimJohansen (7128), Copenhagen V, Denmark

Mulberry red actually. Farmyard sour with some cherry. Full in mouth, juicy cherry fruit and raspberry too. Quite pippy. Farmyard aroma is rather good. Vinous aroma. Some raspberry ripple vanilla in mouth. Finish has cherry, raspberry, pippy sourness. Good length. As good as Boon Kriek? No, but still a good kriek with great integrated fruit.

Abundant aroma of cherries, cherry pits and oak. Sour flavor compensated by rest sweetness of fresh cherries. Vanilla and oak. Dry out effect in the short aftertaste. Very fruity, but also with complexity. A really lovely young kriek.
