Draught sample, very little head, served a bit too warm, clear red colour, aroma of cherries, pits and a whiff of spice, sweet cherry fruitiness and a very light tartness and something coarse, maybee from the pits, sweet fruity candy aftertaste, Another industrial artificial tasting fruit lambic.

Nice.. But not as fresh nor tasty as Lindemans Kriek. (This beer rating was imported from FB and unfortunately lacks any further comments.) Rerating 9.10.2013 Smell of cherry. Red colour, pink head. Full body, malty. Aroma of cherry and malt. Sweet. Flat carbon.

Can 33 cl. Deep red with a large foamy head. The aroma and taste are both lots of cherries, very sour ending. Not my favorite style...

Red color. Pretty thick white head which lasts quite a while. Smell sweet and a little sour. Taste is mainly sweet, little hints of red fruit, little sourness. Not the worst kriek I’ve ever had.

The new bottle now reads "classique", which I thought was a good reason to taste again. There is nothing classical about it though, still the overly sweet, cherry juice kind of beer.
Too sweet. Cherry juice aroma. Flavour sweet, slight sour notes. Lots of cherry juice. In my humble opinion this beer has only one forte, and that is that it is drinkable for and liked by those who don’t like beer or lambic -yet. I know quite a few beer lovers in Belgium and the Netherlands whose first beers ever were Belle-Vue Kriek.
