Bottle shared by Anker. Cloudy dark red with a creamy long lasting pink head. Aroma is heavy fresh natural cherry. Flavour is slight sour cherries but ends up sweet. Cherry all the way. Creamy body. Lovely fruit beer.

as lindemans kriek 3,5% apprearance : deep red, thick pink head. aroma is marcipan, sweet lagered cherries flavor is slightly acidic, sweet cherries, slight bitterness from the beer. palate overall

Cherry red with a pink foamy head. Strong cherry aromas, like cough drops, with a hint of almonds and wood. Cherry dominates the flavors, with a clear sense of yeast present. Champagne-like body and carbonation, a plasant candy-like aftertaste. Probably not something to have very often, but of as a once-in-a-while diversion.

First true lambic after having Sam Adams Cranberry Lambic (awful). Pleasantly surprised. Cherry red with an almost pink head. Aroma of cough syrup and cherry Twizzlers. Very fruity and flavorful with lively carbonation. Not much that makes it a beer in my books but tasty nonetheless. Not too tart. Would like to try their other flavors as well.

First kriek lambic. Hell, at least I know now. Not my favorite. Poured a deep syrupy red with pink tinged foam on top. Aroma is a mix between Twizzlers licorice and cough syrup. Flavor was fake-ish cherry, super tart bitter tang I’m guessing from the wild ferment, and very sweet sugar. Blegh.

Tastes a little like cough syrup. Nothing to write home about, but if you love cherries then go out and get this one.

Red beer with a pink head. Aroma is that of sweet cherries. Flavour very sweet and siropy. I rated a bottle that has aged for 7 years. A lot of the sweetness has gone and it’s even a bit sour. Very drinkable as long as you’re patient enough. Otherwise it’s just like drinking sugarwater with cherry taste. (Bottle 25cl, corked bottle 37,5cl, corked bottle 75cl, tap (not aged ofcourse))
