375ml bottle I’m guessing from a 3F pack. Unclear deep raspberry jam colour. Slimmest of head. Nose has intense black cherry. Cherry Tunes. Sweet oak. Lightly funky. Taste has a flicker of juicy cherry sweetness. Restrained bitterness. Easy drinking with surprisingly low acidity (did the honey addition help with that?). Perfect soft carbonation. Big cherry finish. Lovely.

0,75l bottle at home. Bottled 05/09/2017. deep red color, almost no head (just some tiny bubbles). smells cherries, sour cherries, cherry pits, stone fruits, bit citric, very nice smell. full body, very light carbonation. tastes cherries, citric, grassy, earthy, cherry pits, bit lactic. finishes rather dry and medium sour with notes of cherries, cherry pits and some lactic notes. nice one overall, but rather dry / a tad too much on the lactic side.

Bottle pretty standard 3F kriek, except the head is quite fizzy and doesn't last. Lovely cherry and funk aroma. No honey. On the sour side. Good.

Bottle at home. Completely still. Lingering cherries, faint sweetness, quite acidic.

Bottle at home. Assemblage 45 s16/17. Ruby red with some thin head. Massive cherry 🍒 fills the room. Sweet and sour, fresh cherries, not the overcooked kind. Some sweet and some unripe, yet rich and juicy. Goodeberries and marzipan. Little sharp sting and some fondant sweet marzipan notes straight underneath, followed by pure fruitjuice and a light funky lambic finishing note. Pretty damn good. Much better than the last bottle of 3f oude kriek I tried (which was more toward cooked cherry and blood iron with raging sharp acidity — and yet still good and enjoyable). Drinks like a daydream.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max's place. Thanks zvikar. Deep red-ruby, some pink foam. Barnyard, cobwebs, sweat, oak, cherries, sour, juicy, lemony note, smooth, mild carbonation. So good. Wonderful.
