330ml bottle (Cracked Kettle, Amsterdam)
Bold red, brief fizzy head. Slight cherry nose. Quite a sweet, but also tangy and bitter palate. There’s a decent malty body to this, and a fair hoppy bite. The cherry extract makes its presence felt too, bitter and sweet, but not so fruity as such. More bier than krieken, but that’s quite pleasant. Finish is the tingle of the hops and the rich maltiness more than the cherry.

Bottle. High fluffy but lasting off-white head. Clear very dark brown body. Powerful roasted malt aroma with caramel, cocoa, nuts and of course cherries. Weak cherries flavor with caramel. Too sweet and sugary for my taste. Low carbonation. Short sweet aftertaste.

33cl, from Geers Oostakker, complex Kriek, balanced, cloudy, small head, nice brew

bottle, strange beer, doesnt have the color of a kriek, due to the riping in arend bruin barrels. taste more malty en hoplike then a slight kriek aftertaste..

Botella. Clear red-brown colour. Aroma of cherries with some spice and toasted malt. Mild sweet cherry malty flavour with some spice and dark fruits.
