Red color clear with a almost pink colored head. Smells of tartness, funky sour, cherries, and other fruits. Taste is the same as the smell. Nice and dry. Good beer.

C&C 375ml bottle, best by 14.04.2026 - I KILLED AN INFANT! Murky red with a pink head. Cherry nose, sweet yet tart, bretty and wood notes. Sour cherry and funk flavor - one so young, surprising it developed this far. Absolutely delish!

Aroma of barnyard and tart cherries. Tart sour cherry taste to start that fades to barnyard and leather. Thin sparkling mouth feel. Very nice.

375ml bottle. Garnet color with a pink tinged head. Strong aroma is lemon, barnyard, with tart cherries and dry hay. Light/medium body. Ahh, now this is a fruit lambic. Great dry, tart flavors of cherries, lemon, hay, and oak wood is nicely complex. This one has a mild to medium high tartness front to back. A relative bargain for a quality lambic, with a completely different character than the Beersel Framboise. A most excellent beer .

Delicious. Deliciously sour with the cherries adding a tartness but not really any sweetness. Aroma was very salty sweaty with some hay. In the finish there was an interesting kick which I can’t really pinpoint but it had a bready malt aspect to it along with some barnyard yeast pizazz. Fairly lively carbonation but very drinkable.

From a bottle--Poured a bright ruby red body with a small white, quickly dissipating head. Tart, sweet, sour cherry citrus nose with fizzy teeth. A faint presence of burnt chocolate or malts that was very slight. Cherubic balance of all I’d hoped for in a true Lambic Kriek. Yum!

Bottle. Pours dark magenta color with big, bubbly pink head. The aroma is assertive sour cherry, hints of soft cheese, damp basement, and some earth. The flavor is a nice earthy tartness with a robust cherry flavor behind it. There is some acidity, but it is kept in check by the strong cellar and earth flavors. Cheese notes are minimal, but come out in the aftertaste. Not bad at all.

Bottle Pours a light pink purple body with a 2 finger pink head that quickly dissolves to a lacing. Aroma is sour cherries, woodiness, and some sweet funkiness. Flavor is smooth cherries and some woodiness, very dry in the finish. Not really very sour or sweet. I think this needs 5-8 years.
