Red color with a tall, pinkish head. Solid cherry aroma. Quite a sour cherry taste with hints of wheat. The sour can be a bit offensive at the start, but mellows over a few minutes in the glass. Tasty.

Nice Red Coloring. Foamy White/Pink Head. Cherry Aroma.. Some Carbonation Right Off The Get-Go...Cherry Flavor Comes In...Little Dry at The End... But Very Enjoyable Lambic..and Better than Lindemans I would Say.

This is an well crafted lambic. Not by any stretch the best of the best, but it definitely delivers on cherrys and a dusty mature flavour.

bottled: pours red pink with a huge pink/white head that bubbles with lots of effervesence. nose is mostly of fruit as we would all expect and cherries as we would all expect. follows through into the palate lots of prickly sour cherry flavor. as with the other mort subite not the upper crust of lambics but still okay...im not crazy about this kriek.

Red with a slight brown tint. Constant carbonation. Slight pink head. Tangy cherry aroma. As one would expect, cherries dominate the flavor profile. Some citrus flavors, too, and tart finish. Manages to be both tart and rich through to the end, with a hint of oak and red wine in the finish.

Red with small head. Thin and with little taste: more sweet than sour. IMO Belle-Vue kriek is far better!!!

Cherry aroma, somewhat astringent-bitter. Tannic, not too sweet. Light hops. Dull cranberry pink clear with off-pink lacing head. Medium body with medium carbonation. Light chalky finish. Starts with decent acidity, light cherry flavor, and papery. Light hops. Finish is still acidic, with medium bitterness. Cherry flavor pronounced, but not very smooth. Astringent, alum. Light sour-sweet after. Not a great kriek.

Like their Frambois, this is too syrupy and sweet. However, the cherry sourness is more prominant and not so artificial tasting.
