A pink beer with a light pink head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by marzipan, but also with hints of cherries and wood. The flavor is sweet and dominated by cherries and only hints of acidity, leading to a dry end. Not as bad as I had feared.

(Bottle 25 cl) Amber coloured and presumably clear and filtered. Tall, creamy head. This is a commercial, sweetened gueuze - but not bad as such. Nutty aroma, nutty flavours. Start sweetish but is well balanced by the acidity from the lambic. 100299

(Bottle 33 cl) Clear, dark reddish colour with a small, pink head that leaves laces in the glass. Very pronounced cherry flavour. Incredible, artificial sweetness and very perfumy, artificial cherry-flavours. Apparently also contains elderberries. 030705 (Bottle 25 cl) As "Louwaege’s Kriek" 6/4/4/2/10=2,6 310705

2004 375mL bottling (2001 brewing perhaps?) with a Best Before of 2009. Sent to me by the very generous Jacob Lovenlund, thanks! Shared with Olivier_MTL post-ABF on 6/19/2005.

Pale, copper-amber, with fine bubbles and a strange swirling storm of carbonation that swirls about vigorously and erratically in the glass, proving quite entertaining to the eyes. Tons of foamy white head that is well-retained and provides large sheets of lace all the way down the glass. Good amount of sediment left behind in the bottle. Aroma smells of light powdered sugar, some acetaldehyde. A touch of tart brett, not very impressive though, overall, as it fades fairly rapidly and the aroma becomes very faint with hints of iron. Flavor begins with light tart yeast and green apples but quickly moves in to copper/iron/tin (one of those, or a combination), with a strange stale malt flavor that tastes more like carrots. Eggs and sulphur are horribly rampant on the finish. Light body. Now I’m getting a little bit of rhubarb like bitterness in the flavor. Low carbonation. Loose, watery body, it feels like the malt is somewhat syrupy at times, but it is just so watery on the end. Flavor recedes after breathing and warming and becomes increasingly thin and stale. Eggy.

Bottled. Orange-red colour with foamy white head, lacing. Sweet raspberries in aroma. Sweet and a bit dryish raspberryish flavour along with some hoppy bitterness. Long sweet raspberryish aftertaste.

Bottle. Sour and musty black currant aroma. Reddish -dark purple color with small head. Initial tartness followed by a sweet black currant flavor. Full bodied. Very nice - not as sweet as Lindemans but still more than traditional.

Draught Deep red, cloudy body. No head off course. Nose of mold and caskwood and cherries, but the sweet-ones. Moderately sweet, lightly acidic initial flavour. Lightly sweet, lightly acidic, dry finish, which lasts long. Lightly bodied, flat carbonation. Not my style of kriekenlambiek.

(Bottle 25 cl) 5% ABV. As always I have these rather contradictory sentiments while drinking a Framboise: both fresh and cloying - and this is exactly what I feel about this. Cloyingly sweet with an underlying tartness. No worse than others of the same type, but rather perfumy. 030694

(Bottle 37,5 cl) Nothing looks prettier than a kriek in a glass with it’s tall, fluffy pinkish head. And nothing quences your thirst any better on a hot summer’s day - well, almost nothing. This is a beautiful, deep red. Some fruity sweetness without being cloying. A beer that awakes a yearning for summer.... 190294
