Bottle. Poured a hazy ruby red color. Aroma of cherries is very present. Taste is sweet with a sour tart finish.

Poured a deep, purplish-red with a pink, fizzy head. Aroma is all fruit, dominated by cherries of course. Taste is sweet and sour cherry candy with some slight hints of malt and wheat. It’s certainly good, but nothing more than a novelty act for this beer drinker.

Sampled some Krieks in belgium but this is the only one i have been able to find in the US. Very good with a wonderful aroma and a dark red pour. It is not as smooth as the flambois though and flavor is a little harsh and sweet.

Lovely tart fruity aroma, and a reddish pink head. If you’re in the mood for something a little bit candified, and sweet, this is probably the best of the Lindeman’s lambics I’ve had so far.

Poured a ruby read color with a nice bubbly, pink head. The nose was of tart cherry and a vinious like fruityness. The tatse started with sour cherry with some yeast notes coming through. The end had a hint of marcipan and a mild lingering almond aftertaste in the finish. the feel was full and solid and dry. When I’m quafting and can’t seem to find my rythm, Lindeman’s Lambics always seem to help me find my focus.

Capped and corked bottle pours a dark garnet body topped by a creamy lilac meringue. Funky aroma of cherries and wool sweater. Tart/sweet cherries dominate the taste with notes of raw wheat, woody oak, and apple cider underneath. A bit too fruity/sweet but a tasty lambic, indeed.

Deep translucent blood red in color. Medium bubbly head that was light baby pink and left nice lacing. Exploding vinous aroma with tons of cherry and ridiculous rich cherry flavor. No complexity but for what it is, it’s powerful. A little sugary which left my lips sticky, and tasted like a fruit roll-up

Pours clear and red with no head. Sweet and fruity aroma. Taste has of course a lot of cherry, too sweet.
