33cl from Dranken Geers. The beer starts a but watery, slightly sour. The red ale flavour is not very noticeable. Cherry is a bit sour, but not very intense. The body is watery as well, not very balanced. The aftertaste is short, a bit wood and red ale beside the cherries, but watery in general. --> sadly a very unspectacular beer...

19/V/13 - 75cl bottle as "Oud Zottegems HERGIST Bier" from Geers (Oostakker) @ home - BB: 31/I/15 (2013-495)
Clear orange to amber beer, big aery off-white head, unstable, dissipates immediately. Aroma: sugar, orange peel, metallic, bit spicy. MF: lots of carbon, light to medium body. Taste: little bitter, some caramel, little floral, very watery. Aftertaste: little bitter, floral, metallic. Pretty lame and boring beer.

Bottle shared with Dutchdrebus and Joes. Slightly unclear reddish color, small off - white head that diminishes almost instantly. Smell krieken, slightly sourish and sweetish at the same time. Taste sour cherries, a touch of sweetness, dry. Although I was having a bit of a hard time holding it down in the beginning it’s actually a very good beer.

Bottle, thanks to Leighton, at the 500 miles tasting, Ches Mois, the Sham, 23/03/13. Clear reddish brown with a very thin white head that clears edgeward. Nose is sweet cherry drops, sugars, more cherry drops! Taste is sweet sugars, berry fruits, cherry jam. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, sweet and slightly cloying in the finish. Overall - too sweet !

Bottle at the 500 Miles Tasting, the Sham - one of mine. Pours clear pink with little foamy head. Sugary cherry nose, hints of dry fruits, light to medium sweet flavor, mellow tangy cherries, hints of bitter pits. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Light sweet finish, some pleasant dryness, decent cherry character. I like it.

Bottle from the early 2000’s. Hazy red/brown liquid with small light pink head. Aroma of acetone, cherries, bread, wood, some feces, earthy funk and minerals. Taste is dry and light to medium sour with notes of cherries, wood and minerals. Medium bodied with low to medium carbonation. Ok but too old.
