Small dirty-pink rim over fully dark red to purple beer. Cherry nose, if restrained and bit closed, still full-fruity and yet intense; bit musky, red berries. Taste of cherries however is fully intense, with flavours of cherryskins, concentrated (real) cherryjuice. Fresh green garden herbs, flowers and wood. Finish flashes a hint of blood/iron. Warming up, bit almondy. Almost chewy despite the thinning. Tart, lipsmacking acidity and acidburn. Amazing kriek.
