Bottle from Vinens Verden, Odense. Rated at last - when I have seen it, it has suffered a little from "I know it’s good, but it’s just a Lindemans, I can always get it".
Very deep red with a big pink head. It does have a big cherry aroma to go with the colour, including a little marzipan, but there is also a nice funky complexity, mostly barnyard, old wood and cellar. Nice fruity acidity with lots of funk gooing on. A really great combination of lambik acidity and sour cherries. I love the real and frssh cherry aftertaste

Bottle, in Bruges somewhere. Red pink with pink head, medium carbonation. Heavy cherry but not overpowering. Tart and pissy aroma (but nice). Very refreshing to drink and one I’d certainly do again.

Bottled. Sampled at numerous occations. Berry red, light hazy colour with pink head. Acidic, light cherry and woody aroma along with barnyard. Very lively cherry, citric mouthfeel with woody backbone and acidic brettanomyces. Not awfully sour, but very tart with hints of sweet malt still. Great beer!

Corked bottle
Red color. Light aroma, a bit sour, fruitness almost absent, some cherry stones; glue. Sour flavor, aggressive, a bit astringent; lemony, some chemicals and glue. Simple.

courtesy of fiulijn - hazy dark reddish colour with a pinkish elusive foam; aroma of cobweb, dust and yeast with notes of vinegar and cherries; medium-bodied and quite sticky; dry and long cherrish, dusty and sourish aftertaste

750 ml bottle. Courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar. Slightly dim reddish body with a dense pink head. Aroma of sour cherry, acid and horse blanket. Flavor is acidic, tart and still somehow sweet malt and then sweet and sour cherry fruity. Nice balanced, refreshing with a bitter finish. Very nice indeed but still not the at the top five kriek.
