375ml bottle. Pours reddy orange in colour with a white foam head and aroma of sweet fruity cherry & funk. Taste is sweet & funky, dessert cherry, citric, with biscuity & grainy notes. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, with some residual sweetness at the finish. Quite OK.

Ruby color with tan head. Aroma is sweet cherries, some wood, candied sugar, balsamico vinegar. Taste is similar, with lots of balsamico. No complexity, no nice sourness. More like a bad Flanders Red than a Kriek. Still drinkable.
