Bottle Clear, red body. Lightly pink, creamy head. Sirupy sweet cherry aroma. Modertaely sweet, lightly dry flavour. It is even not good in sweetness ...

(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.
