75 cl bottle, 2006. Clear red color, no head. Wood and almonds in the aroma, with some cherry and cherry pits hidden behind it. Firm sour flavor with cherries, ash, wood vanilla and some almonds. Thinnish, but a good complexity and without doubt a good example of an "old" traditional kriek. My thanks to Lindemans, they have found back the right track.

Bottle. 2016 date on it. Bought from a supermarket in Brussels. Took it down the byo kebab shop. Purple. Medium haze. Super dense, lasting, pink head. Nose has funk. Cherry stone. Cardboard. Taste is tart and lightly sour. Some cherry sweetness. Light to medium body. Foamy carbonation. Tart, light sharp finish. Barring the cardboard this was great.

Flaska från Belgiuminabox. Rödvinsfärgad med medelhögt rosa skum. Syrlig körsbärsdoft med kärnor, mandelkakor. Bådes ÖT och rejält syrlig. Lite mycket kolsyra i början men fina smaker av körsbär med kärnkaraktär. Gott!

2016 vintage. Bottle shared for new year's. Aroma is lovely, complex and very tart, vinegar and cherries in the nose. Medium body. Flavour is really sour and tart, lovely sour cherries are very forward. Very sour with little or no sweetness. Dry finish. Very tasty and well done, yet very tart - almost would be a bit much for me in larger quantities.
