Super dark, brown and ruby-tinted body with a soft, very fast-dying pure white head and a great brow and oaky glow that shows through fairly nicely. Aroma of pure fresh cherries with some light yeast and malty backbone noticeable along with a dash of vinegar and very acidic notes towards the finish. Light-bodied; Very fresh and sharp cherry flavours dominate up front in much more of a fruit-beer or kriek type way, and definitely far removed from a Berliner Weisse in terms of quality and flavours. Aftertaste shows more of a refined and subdued cherry flavour with some light yeast notes, a touch of malt and grain and ending with a soft sweetness and a dash of vinegar and yeasts. Overall, a very well structured beer that shows much more elegantly than any Berliner Wesse that I've ever had, but also shows a nice cherry, yeast and vinegar profile that I didn't expect from this one, but is very nice to sample. Well worth trying to find if you like either style (Lambic/Kriek or Berliner) and don't mind paying the hefty price or flying back home with it in your suitcase! I sampled this 50 cL bottle purchased from West LakeView Liqours in Chicago, Illinois on 25-May-2016 for US$8,99 sampled at my house in Washington on 28-October-2018 in celebration of running the USMC Marathon for the eighth time with my wife who ran her fifth!

A deep dark brown ale with a thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light cherries, lactic acid, Epsom salts, light Brett, very nice and smooth. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity malt with light ground cherry, light Brett, light lactic notes, very nice and complex.
