Klare rötliche Farbe mit minimaler weißer Schaumkrone. Fruchtiger, an Glühwein erinnernder Geruch. Geschmacklich fruchtig nach Kirsche, wiederum Glühwein. Hohe Süße mit leichter Bitterkeit, mittlerer Körper mit sanfter Kohlensäure.

Аромат хороший и даже необычный для фруктового пива с вишней. Аромат не сильный но приятный, есть сок от черешни, полу сладкий, немного косточки, схоже на морс немного, немного листьев от ягод типа смородины. Цвет бледно розовый. пены почти нету. Вкус такой же сбалансированный и приятный. В меру сладкий, есть снова сок от вишни, но без кислинки, немного сухости в конце, намеки на ягоды смородины, но без горячи. В целом отлично, но пил если честно достаточно холодным.

Bottle @ home. Sampled a few times both cold and hot (70 degrees Celsius). Last sample as hot is valid for this rating. Clear, deep red body without any head. Aroma has acidic cherry, dry fruit, cinnamon, cloves and classic glühwein. Taste is quite sweet with some balancing acidity, cherry, dry fruit, glühwein spices and some alcohol. Balanced body and long lasting aftertaste. Nice and fun alternative glühwein. Not easy to compare with anything else, but that’s not important – this is nice.

Glass at the Unterhaching Weihnachtsmarkt, hot and carbonated from the tap. Tall glass, slightly spicy wine-cherry nose, very nice head. Only a little carb left on the tongue due to the heat. Nice full cherry flavor with mild sweetness and a great balance of tartness. Moderate complexity. Extra point for being the inventive one to sell this beer hot at Christmas!

Big bottle. Prefer this cold rather than warm, which I've had before and thought was a bit weird. A christmasy version of the regular liefmans kriek.
