On draft at RateBeer Best. It pours a hazy pink salmon color with an off white pinkish head. The aroma has a bit of solvent and acetic acid with some cherry. The flavor is better with some sweet and sour cherries. Soft mouthfeel with a touch of acetic acid in the finish. Ok.

Bouteille 75cl de et partagée avec Pierre T. Acajou, col fin rosâtre. Arôme de cerise, léger funk, nez est assez vert-frais au niveau du fruité avec ce côté de feuilles vertes. Ces deux éléments sont les plus dominant - cerise et note verte. Palais est râpeux, léger funk, cerise rappelant les cerises de pâtissier, voire la gosette. Funk avec une touche lactique, cerises confites dont le caractère un peu adouci contraste avec le profil plus aigrelet de la bière.

On tap at De Garde, pours an opaque cloudy pinkish red with a large pinkish white head. Aroma brings out loads of medium tart cherries, with medium funk. Flavour is fairly funky, with dry tart cherries, some earthiness, and some barnyard funk. Really cohesive and well-aged. Great stuff.

On tap at De Garde. Pours a pinkish red hue with a large white head. A big spicy cherry nose. Light sour wood and sawdust, big sweet spicy cherry pits, deep cherry goodness. Sweet, but a background of sourness. Solid. I love me some kriek.

Swan Song at Bruce’s. Thanks to Bruce. Hazy red amber beer, small cream colour head. Palate is light, dry and crisp. Nice Flemish red sourness livened by a little sherbet. Cherry and mild vinegar. Tangy orange peel, well buried. Little lemon. Light crisp finish. Tart but tasty.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Bruce. Pours unclear red-brown with a creamy off-white head. Lots of tangy, jammy cherries in the nose, slight funk. Medium sweet flavor with some chalky berry candies, tart cherries, fairly acetic, some vinegar. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sharp acetic finish, aggressive, cleansing, some further tart cherries, juice. Some lingering tongue-blistering acetic twang to finish. Good, but damn sharp.
