Bottle. Color: Jazy pinkish red, large pink head disappearing very quickly. Aroma: Funky, cherry. Taste: Rural funk, dark cherry, tannins. Cherry kernel, wood. Light to moderate tartness, some sweetness too. Medium body, just below average carbonation. Needs some time to open up. Nice Kriek.

Deep pink color. Nice vinegar, oak, cherry nose. Lemon, cherries, cherry put oak, firm tart palate, low medium carbonation. Tart long last cherry finish. Better than expected

Poured from 750mL bottle (2022 vintage). Got the bottom of the bottle pour so cloudy dreggy pink with small white head. Cherry, funky tartness, decent.

750mL bottle. Pours clear dark red with think pinkish red. Aroma has bright cherries, solid funk, and acidity. Flavour has a ton of fruit, good balance of tartness and acidity, lots of cherries. Fantastic beer.

Pale and bright cherry. No head. Mild cherry nose. On the palate, brighter cherry. Dry, lots of fruit, and sour but not sharp. The base lambic doesn't have a ton of complexity, but it's a nice fruit character.

750mL bottle, pours a clear pinkish red with a small white head. Aroma is full of intense red cherries, light-to-moderate funk, and a tiny hint of acidity. Flavour has pretty intense, cherry pie cherries, light-to-moderate acidity, and moderate funk. The nose is more complex and invigorating than the flavour; though the cherry pie character is real nice. Excellent.

750mL bottled October 2022, drunk 6/18/24. Clear, bright, cherry red. Immediately-fizzling head. Wow that cherry is excellent. Juicy, bit of wax, spice and meatiness. Soft lambic cultures behind it. Smells authentic. Bright, juicy, tart, not too funky, but with mellow lactic character, gentle Brett, no acetic. Good malt/wheat texture and support. The carbonation, at least initially, is very, very sharp. But after it fades, the juiciness and tartness really comes out. Excellent texture and Brett. Incredibly well-done.

750 ml capped & corked bottle, bottled 03-2021, from Vinmonopolet. ABV is 6.2%. Pink to red colour, large to moderate off-white head. Distinct aroma of cherries, marzipan and brettanomyces / farmhouse. Medium sour flavour with the same elements, also hints of lemons.
