Bottled. Deep slightly murky and hazy red colour with small head. Aroma is cherries, some sour wood as well as mild notes of vanilla. Flavour is quite much the same, but also rather sweet, even though the sourness dominates. OK and quite refreshing.

Bottle from Voldby. Creamy white slightly pink head. Mostly lasting. Red wonderfull colour. Light sour aroma, only week cherrie-notes in aroma and flavor. Heavy acetic flavor and finish. Oily palate. Not that sweet and syruply.

Bottled. A very red beer with a medium beige head. The aroma is slightly acidic with notes of cherries and hints of almond. The flavor is medium sour with strong notes of cherries and a light touch of almonds, leading to a tart dry finish.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Clear reddish with a creamy, pink head. Lightly tart cherry aroma. Medium body with tart cherry notes - some almonds - and a slightly astringent, tart finish. Dry with only a discreet, underlying sweetness. Quite decent for a commercial Kriek. 080408

Big pink head does not last. Deep red ruby body. Wooden yoghurty cherry juice aroma with a sharpish quality to it. Dry tart wooden metallic cherry juice taste with yoghurty notes. Sharpish mouthfeel. Thin-bodied. Long, intense acidic grainy metallic aftertaste. Not really bad, but not good, either. (0.33l bottle from Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

[Courtesy of yespr] Clear red with medium pinkish head. Sour aroma with cherry, barnyard and woody notes. Sweet and sour flavor with artificial cherry and marzipan notes. Ends slightly sour. Add some fresh fruit instead and it might be good…

Deep red color, small steady red head. Tart cherry aroma with earthy notes. Typical well-made kriek: sour cherries, finish has some cherry candies. Sourish aftertaste. Not artifical, but "real fruity", although a bit simple. Suprisingly good for Timmermans.
