A murky reddish brown ale with cherry hue, and a thick moka head, collapsing rapidly. Aroma of sour lactic cherries, not unpleasant, similar to Liefmans Kriek, with light Epsom salts. In mouth, a sourish kriek with light cherries, butterscotch, lactic aids and cream. Not bad. Bottle from JesseM, June 2009, so about 9 months old. Thanks Jesse!

Bottle from matt7215. Ok, nearly at the end of your beers, but my gratitude only increases. Pours a very reddish, hazy amber with a large frothy beige head. Aroma of reddish fruit. Medium body with fizzy carbonation. Flavor is cherry, mild funk, and something like cherry pit. Then it goes all oaky astringent. Oh. Bottle says oak aged. Finish is funky, oaky cherry, but not so strong my mouth can’t stand it. Bottom line: Do whatever you need to do to get this. It’s not a Belgian kriek, but it’s damn tasty. Arguably the issue is that the particular cherries are a bit sweeter than the sour Belgian.

Bottle: Poured a deep cloudy reddish brown color ale with a big foamy head with good retention and minimal retention. Aroma of sour cherries with light oak notes and a bigger malt backbone then expected. Taste is quite interesting with some lightly tart cherry and some subtle oak with a great dry caramel malt backbone. Full body with limited filtration and good carbonation. I must admit to having enjoyed that one quite a bit but more oak presence would have had complexity and made this even more enjoyable.
