Apr 19, 2009 Bottle from BevMo. Pours a reddish purple color with a fizzy pink head. Nose was of tart berries with some sweetness in there as well. Flavor was very sweet with tart dark berry fruits once again.

Apr 19, 2009 375 ml bottle- 1997 vintage I think. Pours a bright purple with violet ruby highlights and a thin diminishing fizzy head. Aroma is still very bright and fruity- cassis with a sharp green tomato hint, slight vegetal but extremely sweet fruity and blackberry with the black currant. Flavor is a bit cardboard and stale but still lots of syrupy sweetness, along with lots of still fresh berry cut by a slight stale acidity - still not something Im crazy about from the sweetness, but I was surprised it held up so well after 12 years.

Apr 18, 2009 Bottle: A dark ruby pour with a large, creamy pink head. Aroma is dry and fruity. Like fruity champagne. Sweet fruity taste with a little tartness and lightly dry. Pace yourself, this is very easy to drink.

Apr 12, 2009 Gorgeous burgundy color with plenty of bubbles. Deep fruity aroma, clearly lots of currant but also oak. Tingly mouthfeel. Definite sour aftertaste but that’s a plus as it starts out fairly sweet. Enjoyable’

Apr 10, 2009 Strong, fruity, grape aroma. Thin, purple white head. Has the texture of champagne. Very sweet at first, slightly sour aftertaste. I wouldn’t drink it all the time, but it’s an interesting diversion.

Apr 3, 2009 Grape purple with a pink foamy head. Strong tart fruit aromas, like a grape lollipop, with plenty of earthiness and wood. Sweet and sour grape dominates the flavors, with a clear sense of yeast present and a slight mintiness. Champagne-like body and carbonation, a pleasant candy-like aftertaste. Like the Kriek, probably not something to have very often, but nice to have on occasion.

Mar 31, 2009 Another lambic fruit beer. Oye. This one is a bit of raspberry and other plumb like fruit mixed in. Ok. Sweetness overwhelms.
