Draught @ Akkurat, Stockholm, leftover from lambicfestival Fruit, sugar and barnyard aroma. Red in color, low carbonation, pink head. Subtle barnyard base, nice balance, fruit not artificial at all. Dry exit, cherry aftetaste is extremely good. Sparkly mouthfeel. A very nice drink!

(Draught off course) Deep red body, no head. Cherry aroma with hints of oak. Soft mouthfeel, light body. Lightly sweet, lightly acidic initial flavour. Very short dito finish.

[Out of a 10 liter cardboard box at Jacob Lövenlunds place] A clear ruby red beer with a pink disappearing head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of cherries. The flavor is slightly sour like grapefruit combined with strong notes of cherries. I lovely beer. Thanks Jacob for sharing this.

(draught of course) White-pinkish slim head; slightly hazy, beautiful cyclamen-red beer. Faintly sweets-nose, cherrydrops, some Brett shining trough. Rather sweet taste, but not sugared or syrupy cherry taste. It is as if sweet-cherry (kersen) juice has just been added, instead of sour cherry (krieken) juice. Touch of almonds from the stones. The fruit lends extra filling to the mouthfeel. However weirdly sweet, it never presents an artificial flavour profile. It just seems the wrong kind of fruit - for a lover of the sour-fruit theme. For a sweet tooth, however...

Sampled draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Dark clear red. Aroma of black cherries. Fruity and intensely flavourful with balanced acidity. Though it is complex and very vinous, and the flavour of the cherries is just wonderful it takes a bit of the edge of the complexity of the unblended lambic, making it only slightly less superb.
