375ml bottle@Kristiansand lambic festival. Clear red body with a big pink head. Aroma has a lot of fruity cherry, but not as artificial as often the case when they get this heavy fruity. Flavor is rather sweet, refreshing cherry with the lambic basic still intact. Not a fully developed kriek this, but really refreshing with the genuine stuff recognizable.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy gold/orange with a moderate white head. Aromas of horse blanket and lemon. Spritzy flavour of lemon with a tart, but not too sour, finish. Very drinkable.

375ml bottle from Delhaize, Gent. Poured a vivid red with a deep pink medium head. Aroma was intense mix of sour cherries, oak and the farmyard. Mouth puckeringly dry with some cherry fruitiness and a long acidic finish. Shame that this is rarely seen in the UK.

25 cl bottle. Deep red colour with a thick, pink tinged head. Aroma of syrupy cherries. Flavours were tart with some subdued red fruit and almonds. A slightly sour finish. Not nearly as good as the Oude Kriek.

Bottle. Yellowy-brown colour with short lived head that left rings of lacing. Faint aroma of yeast and sourness. Flavours of lemon and vinegar with a sweet finish. Very much a lambic-lite, but quaffable.
