Bottle, 2009 vintage, small sample. Hazy pink to red color, short frothy head. Aroma is very fruity of cherries, tartness, funk, barnyard. Quite sour in taste, lots of fruity cherry, citric acid. Great tartness, on the edge, but still quite smooth due to the big amounts of cherry. Loved this one.

Vintage 2013. Purple color with pink head. Aroma is citrus funk, some sour cherries, no almonds though. Taste is first funky, citrusy, then sour cherries, deeper than expected. Carbonation is very pleasant, not too high as it sometimes is with Krieks. 7-4-8-4-16=3.9 EDIT: 2008 bottle enjoyed in June 2016. Beautiful opalescent ruby color with small white head. Aroma is cherry skin, almonds, sour, bretts, and some cellar. Taste is bone dry, hints of cherries left, refreshing and light. Medium carbonation. Aged gracefully, a perfect summer apéritif now! 8-5-8-4-16 = 4.1

Lindemans Oude Kriek Cuvée René rocznik 2013. Barwa idealnie czerwona. Aromat pestek wiśni jak i samych owoców. Smak oczywiście kwaśny wiśniowy. Niezwykle głęboki, o wiele poziomów wyżej niż wszystko w tym stylu co piłem do tej pory. Wyborny trunek, wręcz dzieło sztuki.

Red to ruby colored, bit cloudy, small pink head, non lasting. Aroma is cherry fruity tart, funky barnyard. Taste is low sweet fruity cherry, quite dry with moderate tartness, funky and averagely sour. Wild horse blanket aftertaste. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation. (bottle, Pivoteka, Zagreb)

0.75 l bottle from Pivoteka Zagreb. Shared with Vi?nja and Goran, thanks. Deep ruby red cherry color, diminishing pink head. Sour cherry and citrus aroma. Medium to heavy carbonation. Nice balance of cherry and cellar aromas. Sour cherry finish. Good.
