(750ml 2018 bottle from Etre) Pours deep red, nearly purple, with a little haze and a big pile of pink foam and lace. Notes of ripe almost jammy dark cherries with a good bit of residual sweetness to match the tartness, tannic cherry skins, quite some drying wood, light lactic tartness with a little citric edge, hint of marzipan, fairly mild presence of earthy funk but with the profile I associate with De Cam, long light sweet and tart slightly mineral cherry infused finish and aftertaste. Light to medium body with high but smooth effervescence. Much more like the De Cam gueuzes in balance than their still fruit lambics, which tend to be very acidic. Maybe not the most complex but a very enjoyable kriek.

Bottle. High assertive sourness, lots of it. Lots of funk, horse blanket, hay. Also lots of cherry character, classic natural feeling. Could use a bit more complexity, feels a bit simple. Still quite good, just not great.

Bottle, 2018. Color: Dark hazy, almost purple red, very large fast disappearing pink head. A lot of fizzing carbonation in the glass. Aroma: Funky sweet and sour dark cherries. Taste: Moderate sweet and over moderate to medium tart dark cherries, very fruity, quite a lot of funk, nice notes of wood. Tannins, dry mouthfeel. Over medium body, just below average carbonation, although it's still fizzy in the bottle. Well balanced, nice complexity. A real nice Kriek.

Bottle, 2009, thanks to bursprak. Cheers! Pours slightly hazy ruby red with a small pink head. Aromas of very tart cherries, lots of sour notes, vinegar, some acidity, funky notes, some sweeter oaky notes. Taste is pretty sour up front, tart cherries, funk, hay, straw, acid, vinegar, sweeter notes, oak. Very nice!
