Draught at The Bohemian in Deal. Reddish ruby cloudy beer. BNose of sour cherries, taste is of cherries. Full in mouth. Excellent long lasting flavour of sour cherries and biting bitter hops. Superb

[bottle from bier halle] Pours red with a large pink head. Aroma is cherry. body i light and finish is sweet. I dont like this stuff much, it feels more like fizzy cherryade with alcohol in it than beer.

Nice red color, head has a tinge of red as well. Nice cherry flavor, not overwellming, but enough so you still taste beer.

2001 bottle. This comes off smelling like a really raw lambic with a hint of cherries. Look of a nice red amber with no head (on a 2001, what else would I expect.) Bitterness is a really nice wild yeast and has some malt and cherry. Quality brew, but shows a bit of age.

Clear cherry red with rosée head. Cherry pulp aroma with sour notes. Rich in sugar sweetness with light cherry, and ginger and vanilla notes, good bodied. The best of the 3.

wow this is sour, poured dark with a reddish hue, nice big pink head, aroma of fermented cherries, and wine like carbonation. intial taste was a lot to bare, real sour, but it lightens up the more sips you take, not a bad beer, but i wasnt to impressed.

Dark red colour The 25cl bottle is more sour than the 37.5cl corked one (that one is more sweeter). A aroma of real cherries (not an artificial aroma), they didn’t add to much sugar. A really good ’kriek’. (Bottle 25cl,corked bottle 37.5cl)
