Rich red, small head. Sharp cherry aroma, more sharp than cherry. Soft carbonation, but pleasant sharpness. Fairly mellow body, a touch milky. Clear cherry , but subtle and well integrated. Good flemish read. Nice mix between the sweet and the acidic. Finish is a bit butter-popcorn and very mellow herbal hops.

Jul 16, 2009 Poured a luxurious, dark ruby red in colour and was fairly well carbonated. The head was miniscule and didn’t stay around beyond a few seconds. Aroma was faint, but did suggest some cherry. The taste was quite pleasant, being chiefly cherry with a bit of malt and was not as bitter as expected. I found this one rather "fizzier" than other Kriekenbiers.

Jul 11, 2009 Why buy something that states ’real’ in its name? It assumes all others around to be fake. Competition in ’kriekenbeer’ country must be fierce.
The commercial description on-site of this beer states it to be a top-fermenter. The tag on the back says it to be of a mixed fermentation. Translated to be a mix of wine and beer processing, or should I interpret this as both top and under-fermenting and perhaps even spontaneous fermentation.
Anyway, the result is a beer with a fruity bite, little bitterness and no sweet.
Curious but okay.
