Bottle. Deep ruby-purple color with pink head. Aroma is nice cherries, grapeskin, tobacco, barn. Taste is the same, not too soury good earthiness and vineousness. Silky mouthfeel with fine-bubbled carbonation. Very good!

A very tasty kriek as well, but it does seem a bit more tame and less mature than the B225. The grape and weird wood do shine through nicely, and all the flavours are there.. just a bit odd for me, I'd prefer a cleaner kriek.
