[BCTC ’07] - served at the VIP dinner - clear pinkish beer with a fast-fading white head - very sweet, nearly artificial cherry aroma, with notes of vanilla, and not much else (as aeneas notes, it almost smells like cherry soda) - sweet, sugary flavor, with dominant cherry (although quite natural, not artificial like the aroma seems to suggest) - no funkiness or earthy complexity (tastes filtered, even) - a tiny bit of nearly acidic tartness and fruit skins come into play, but never really step up and balance the sweetness - one-dimensional, and, yes, quite like lindemans.

Small offwhite head. Hazy chestnut brown body. Sugary medicinal licorice aroma with toffeeish notes. Sharpish spicy licorice taste with roasty spicy hoppy notes. Dryish grassy aftertaste. It’s OK. (0.33l bottle from Dorstvlegel, Antwerp.)

Small offwhite head. Brown-red body. Syrupy wooden tobacco aroma with lots of unidentifiable things in the back; very complex. Acidic-yet-sweet wooden watery balanced taste with notes of grain and metal. An interesting and drinkable faro where the lambik characteristics have been preserved. (0.25l bottle from Dorstvlegel, Antwerp.)

Botte (0.375l): Hazy, reddish-amber coloured, extremely firm pinkish head, like beaten egg-white; moderate to strong sweetish fruity nose - distinctive cherry aromas - with a little acidity in the background; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied; sweetish-sourish finish with a little tartness in the aftertaste. Not too traditional, but very pleasant and refreshing........

(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm) Deep red colour, like red wine, with foamy pink head. Fruity nose with a distint cherry aroma and a hint of almond. Fruity taste with loads of fresh cherries. Sweeter than the oude kriek, but drier than most other sweet krieks. Fairly thin body and short finish. Nice cherry characater and very refreshing on a hot summer evening.

Bottle, 5%. Sweet, acidic and vinous aroma with some fruit/berries. Dark amber colour, seems clear. Sparkling. Small white head. The flavour is citric and slightly sweet. Moldy with a rough, old tasting bitterness. Thin mouthfeel. Not too pleasant at first, but it gains a little after a while.
