2013 vintage 750ml bottle. Pours out a dark red topped with a tall pink head. Nose is great big cherries tart and sweet. Plenty of the barrel character with a nice buggy note. Taste is more of the nice tart sweet cherries the barrel presents and a nice tart buggy pucker.

Bottle - 2014. Pours deep hazy ruby, large fizzy pink head that dissipates pretty quickly leaving some residual and lacing. Aroma is funky socks, cherries, oak tannins, light cheese. Flavor is light tart, light plus funky, oaky, cherries, brett and rather clean funky notes. Medium body, bubbly soda-like carbonation. Tasty beer.

Good but not the greatest kriek ever. Lightly cloudy, purplish. Bubbly. Cherry in the nose and flavor, fair bit of tartness. Lowish carbonation, I can definitely taste an almond like presence in the finish, also sweet. Reminds me of a dutch almond pastry my mom used to make. Touch of blue cheese. Not a lot of depth or complexity, separating it from the very best lambics I’ve had, but still the funky sour and cherry hits mostly all the right spots.

Sampled from bottle thanks to kraddel. Very hazy dark red color, small pinkish head. Smell is mostly sweet red fruit, while taste is more sourish cherries and wood. Dry finish. Suitable body and carbonation. Quite nice.

Bottle obtained in a trade, shared at BBF 15. Pours dark, intense red. Smell is sour, cherrie. Taste is sour, wet cherries. Very dry. Good, but perhaps a bit simple.

25/IX/15 - 75cl bottle @ Borefts 2015 (Bodegraven) - BB: n/a (2015-1316) Thanks to kraddel for sharing the bottle!

Little cloudy deep purple beer, no head. Aroma: lots of cherries, almonds, some chlorine. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very nice acidity, some chlorine, lemon juice. Aftertaste: little bitter, very acidic, sour cherries, bit of vinegar. Maybe a little too sourish, overwhelming the cherries, but overall a very nice and complex beer!
