Belgian ale with cherry and elderberry.
Deep dark red colour (EBC 40), with a light pink, compact and lacing head.
Soft fruity aroma, with hints of almond and mildly sour cherries. Sweet and fruity, with a nice balance between sweet and sour. An excellent dessert beer.

Bottle shared with Terje at De Strohoed in Leeuwqrden while sailing through Staande Mastroute, Netherlands, with Baluba 07.07.23. Deep red. Pink head. Fine aroma and taste of cherry jam and bitter cherry pits. Very sweet, but still well-balanced.

A dark red beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma has cherries, raspberries, sweetness. Taste has cherries, light spicyness, lots of sweetness. Medium bodied. Why this is spoiled with sweeteners?

Pours a deep red with a small head. It has a rich aroma dominated by cherries. Sweet flavor. Loads of cherries. I taste some Belgian yeast spice but mostly it’s a cherry bomb.

Deep dark red with extra fruity red colour. Pink head too. 3cm persistent head, stable pour. Strong hit of cherries on the nose, but also some maltiness, floral tones, coriander herbiness and vague hoppiness. Good hit of cherry and raspberry in the mouth up front, flowing towards sweetness and then sourness in the midrange. Sour and cherry fruity finish. Good, well rounded kriek.

Bottled (from Alko webshop). Deep red colour, small reddish beige head. Aroma is cherries, some malts, yeast and some toffee. Flavour is cherries, some sweet sugary and malty notes.

Bottle, kindly shared by my brother. Not sure why, but I was not expecting kriek beer. For it's kind, it's relatively okay. Even though I'm not huge fan of these.

Quite fake cherry, though the elderberry seems legit. Not the first time I've had this.

A bit artificial tasting - between that and the slight booziness, it has a bitter finish. It’s fine but I’m underwhelmed.
