250 ml bottle, from Carrefour, Cartagena, Spain. ABV is 4.3%. Lambic brewed with 10% cherries and elderberries, sugar and sweetener. Gusher bottle. Red colour, moderate pinkish-white head. Intense aroma of preserved cherries and cherry candy. The flavour is intensely sweet and fruity, notes of cherry candy, but not very sour. Hints of marzipan. Good in its own perverted way - there is not much here to remind you that this actually is a beer, though.

bottle from beerplanet.eu clear red, large smooth creamy pink head. sweet and fruity aroma of marcipan, almonds and cherries. any sour lambic is buried way down, but can be sensed. flavor is sweet cherries, red fruits, faint marcipan.quite sweet and fruity, not really any hints of lambic at all. Reminds me of english fruit beer, but is still somewhat more refined. Even though very fruity and sweet, it is still refreshing. Iβm a sucker for this kind of beer, canβt help it.

Agree almost completely with benzai (shared the same bottle also). Expected the taste to be worse. It was quite drinkable.

Beautiful deep red color. Smell is really really bad! Smell a lot of almond (amandel), totally not nice in a beer! (Gevulde koek!) Mouthfeel fair.

Bottle. Red with an inch of pink head. Smells of childrenβs medicine with some marzipan. Tastes like it too, with some drying cherry stones or almonds at the end. Sweet and syrupy. I like some of the sweet lambics - even the ones that taste like soft drinks. Not this.

(can) clear red with tall pink head; aroma starts with candy, then cherries; flavour is both sweet and tart, it is more of a soda than a beer

Bottle @ Delhaize, Brussels. Pours red with frothy pink head on top. Sweet sugar, artificial cherries and candy. Sickening sweet and cloying.

Biggish pink head. Purple body. Strong syrupy yoghurty cherry aroma. Dry-sweet strong cherry taste with yoghurty toffee notes. Full body. Mild mouthfeel. Dryish yoghurty cherry aftertaste is kind of short. Quite nice and drinkable, and certainly powerfully flavoured with cherry. (0.35l bottle, de Biertempel, Brugge.)

Canned 250ml. -found somewhere in Bruxelles. Dark reddish coloured, small pink head, notes of marchpane and glue in the nose. Strong sugary cherry taste with notes of glue. Short, dry and metallic finish. (Below) average and boring kriek.
