12 oz. bottle, sent from Glouglouburp (thanks Dany), pours an opaque bright ruby red with a small white head. Aroma of wild, tart red berries, moderate funk, and wild yeast notes. Flavour is quite tart and dry, with completely unsweetened sour cherries, low-to-moderate funk, low acidity, and a bit of wild yeast. Extremely dry, with no sugar left unattenuated. Very drinkable, dry sour. Great stuff.

Bouteille 341ml. Couleur rouge rosée, mousse rosée disparaissant rapidement, légèrement huileuse. Arôme surette, cerise, confiture, vineux. Goût de cerise, légère acidité, un petit quelquechose de "off". Carbonation faible, corps moyen, un peu aqueuse. Le nom de la bière se veut un jeux de mot pour Kriek et s’en est désolant...

Bottle: Poured a light yellow with white haze ale with a medium size pure white foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma consists of wheat with light bready yeast ester and some coriander. Taste is a nice mix between some thin wheat malt and some coriander and orange peel notes with solid ester form the yeast and a light tart finish. Body is definitely a bit thin but carbonation is good. Not a good staple of the style but I still quite enjoyed that one.

Is this an improved version or just another way of naming the original? Aroma has again a lot of grapefruit with touch of lemon and herbal notes. We can also find a slight touch of cereal but less than the original. nose is very close to the original but sticking out a bit more. Clear golden / blond with creamy, thick and long lasting head. Lacing is nice too. Attack is showing sharp notes of citrus and green grass. Bitterness is strong and very long lasting. A lot of herbal and grassy notes. Hops are all over the place. To my opinion this beer has a lack of complexity. Same as for it’s little sister ’’La Ruine Papille’’. This is not an improvement. It looks to me that it’s the same beer.

Bouteille 341ml. De couleur dorée et claire. Nez de houblon résineux, légèrement floral, citrique et herbeux, de fruits (agrumes, notes d’abricots) et moyen de grains de malt sucrés. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture résineuse et très légèrement crémeuse. Goût amer de houblon floral, moyennement résineux et légèrement citrique (une amertume présente toute la gorgée) et accompagné d’un goût fruité (agrumes, petites notes d’abricots) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se joint un goût de grains de malt pâle sucrés puis en finale l’amertume reste tout autant intense, plus résineuse, asséchante et affichant un caractère herbeux (herbes fraîches, traces de thé). Post-goût Post-goût long et sec, amer de houblon résineux, moyennement herbeux et floral et légèrement citrique avec un léger goût fruité (zeste d’agrumes).

Bottle: Poured a clear dark color porter with a large dark white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light roasted malt with light black chocolate notes. Taste is also a mix between medium bitter roasted malt notes with light dry black chocolate notes. Body is about average with good carbonation (maybe even a tad too strong for style). Nothing extremely complex in this beer but well enjoyable nonetheless.

Aroma; Caramel, cherry and toffee. Typical aroma but not much developed and having difficulty sticking out. Visual: Black with red glints. Average creamy head, average lasting. Not much lacing either. Taste: Attack is cherry and dried fruits on a caramel basis. More hoppy than an average scotch ale with a bitterness finish, very long lasting and annoying. Texture is creamy and round, body is medium to full. Malty flavors are buried by strong and unpleasant hoppy finish. Caramel and toffee are not developing.
