Draft at Mort Subite in Brussels. Crystal clear ruby red colored body with a pink billowy head. Flavor of candied sweet and syrupy cherries, with a light sprite/cola brightness throughout. Soft carbonation, and overall pale and empty, lacking depth. More like cherry soda than lambic, but it does has some creamed fruit/milk notes to help balance the sugar, but overall it’s very sweet and purely commercial.

Pours a fruit punch red with a white head. Aroma is light, sour fruit. The flavour is well crafted, sweet, sour, well balanced, the right carbonation. The palate is a tad syrupy but I sort of expected it would be. All and all a tasty brew.

Bottle, LCBO. Clear red, soemwhat foamy white head that diminishes quickly. Mild cherry nose, not bad. Lots of cherry in taste, all up front, giving way to mild cherry/raspberry linger.Well carbonated,a little light for me. This starts and finishes quickly, which is too bad as I enjoy some of the flavours here. Not bad.

Bottle at Cafe Trappisten, Westmalle. Red with a pink head, ok lacings. Aroma moderate malty (cherries). Flavor moderate sweet and sour. Light body. A ladies drink.

Bottle from the LCBO. Clear ruby-red with a large pink head that leaves some beautiful lacing. Aroma of tart cherries with a slight woody character and a floral hint. Medium bodied. Flavour is very fruit forward - cherry, obviously, but also a bit of currant and cranberry - with a nice sweet-tart balance. Finishes moderately dry, with notes of oak and quick hops. Certainly not the most complex or exciting kriek out there, but still a nice refresher.
