One of those new generation ’summer krieks’ with low ABV and exagerratedly sweet character; deep red colour, off-pink head; bubble gum character, grenadine, jam, tons of sugar sticking to the teeth with no relieving acidity whatsoever. Liquid candy. I’ll never learn to appreciate this style, I’m afraid.

Orange to read coloured liquid, tall bubbly head. Smells of cherries. The aroma is plain fruity with a hint of wheat. Light body. Thin texture. Tastes sweet & sour at the same time. The nature of witbier comes up with aftertaste. No bitterness. I thought it would be much worse. It tastes well.

Bottle. Aroma strong sugary cherry. Lightly hazy pinkish red colour. Stable pinkish head. Taste is mostly cherry flavour. Sweetness balanced by some tartness. Not bad refreshment, but too artificial for me.

Bouteille 330ml. De couleur rosée et voilée. Nez fruité (cerises au marasquin) avec des traceas de gomme balloune. Moyennement ronde en bouche et peu pétillante avec une texture sirupeuse fruitée. Goût fruité sucré aux petites notes sûres (cerises sucrées sans l’aspect sirop) lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi très rapidement d’un goût très sucré de sirop de cerises avec de très faibles notes herbeuses en finale. Post-goût moyen-long, composé d’un goût sucré de cerises artificielles.

Very pleasant kriek. I’ve has some that have been too sweet, thiis is right on the money. Nice cherry aroma from the get-go, followed by a sweet flavor, almost like a cherry soda. Tingles on the palate, and nice body. A very delicious dessert beer.
