Poured into a wine glass. Pours a nice cherry red with a fluffy pinkish head that quickly disintegrates. Aroma is tart lemons and black cherry. Flavor is sour cherries and ascorbic acid, with some cardboard oxidation and a little sweetness. Not the most complex lambic but still solid.

Oct 26, 2009 Poured a hazy reddish brown (more red than brown) color with a pink, fizzy head. The aroma was a touch of funk with plenty of tart cherry. The flavor was only slightly funky with some light spice up front that reminded me of cinnamon and then tons of tart cherry from midpalate to the finish. Highly acidic. Enjoyable.

Oct 22, 2009 375 ml bottle poured into a flute glass. Pours a cranberry color with big frothy pink head, lots of bubbles shooting up in there! Aroma of tart dark cherries and slight vinegar. Taste is cherry juice, slightly tart and acidic. Very carbonated and lively mouthfeel. My first experience with a lambic, and I’m interested to try some of the better ones. But I’m intrigued for sure!

Sep 11, 2009 375ml bottle dated 05/28/2011 so this is a 2006 or 2008 possibly. Its got a good lemon and glue aroma with a hint of cherries and sugar. I like it but it is not what I would expect from a kriek lambic. The flavor is more glue and sugary cherries, not sour at all but oddly enjoyable. No hint of funk or barnyard to this at all.

May 24, 2009 375 bottle BB 8-23-2011. Pours an unclear purplish red with a thin frothy light purple/pink head. Strong mashed cherry aroma, cedar, like chocolate-chip cherry ice cream, sour yogurt, fresh and airy, butter. Flavor is heavy bing cherries, full flavored, medium sweet, light acidity, lightly buttery like cookie dough, a bit tangy, fairly woody, creamy and juicy, a sophisticated cherry pie. Quick candy finish. Medium/full bodied with a full mouthful, exactly like wedding punch and sherbet. Great cherry flavor, but its a catch-22 as the added sugar is also noticeable.

May 15, 2009 Bottle 375ml. Pours a cranberry body with a pink fuzzy head that disperses to a thin lacing around the glass. Sour cherries, balsamic vinegar, and a light woodiness with underlying tones of acetic acid and cherry pit and skins. Soft cherry and more vinegar notes, very low acidity with a lush cherry flavor. A nice dry lambic can’t wait to make some blends with the stout next to me.

May 7, 2009 Pours to a deep purple body with a pink foamy head. The aroma is heavily cherry puree and a light pale malt. Mostly fruit. The flavor is super heavy on the fresh bing-like cherries or montmorency-like cherries. Tastes like cherry candy. There is more of a strong cherry in the flavor than the aroma. The palate is sweet but not cloying. Like drinking tangy sweet cherry juice.
