Verhaeghe Echte Kriekenbier

Full aroma of sweet cherries and oak. Pours a clear deep red with a compact pink head. Flavor is cherries and vanilla, whose sweetness offsets a long bitter woody finish. Dry on the finish, has the sensation in common with many dubbels where it seems to evaporate off the tongue. More a sipper than a drinker.

On tap at B2B. Deep dark copper red in color with a off white head. Sour funky cherry grape aroma. Yeasty fruity flavor. Sour cherry notes. Tart cherry taste. Finish is sour. Very nice. Very drinkable.

Never seen a redder beer in my life - beautiful. Looks like a much redder Duchesse. Mild, pungent, fruity aroma - predominantly cherries and grapes. The flavor is more superficial than Duchess, with more cherries and a bit more tartness. Possibly a bit metallic / artificial. Still very good, but no Duchesse.

On tap at Stone. Yum Yum Yum. Smells sour with a background of funkiness. Farmy undertones. Wonderful brown red color. Taste is good, but the leftovers are great. This funkiness in the aftertaste hangs out and bounces around the mouth for a long time. The quote I wrote at the time was the leftovers hang out and party in my mouth.

Bottle. Red -golden-brown colour with a red-beige head. Aroma is sour, cherry, yeast. Flavour is sour, cherry, yeast, sugar. Nice beer.

A full-bodied brown ale made with cherries. Has an intense fruit flavor, but no sweetness - and yet, doesn’t have the sourness of a lambic. Worth trying.

Pours attractive garnet color with no head. The nose and the flavor are full of vinous over ripe fruits and balsamic vinegar.

33cl bottle Pours dark red with a hint of brown. Little to no head. Smells sour with cherries, a little vanilla, little oak. Taste is quite sour like it could almost be lambic based yet still like a flemish sour. Overall sourness immediately with cherries, oak, and ends light and dry. Tough to believe 6.8% alcohol!
