2.6 Pours a clear, ruby red coloration with a small, fluffy head. Smell is dominated by a somewhat artificial cherry aroma, with strong notes of marzipan as well. Taste is an okay balance of sweet and slightly tart red cherries with a distinct, sugary marzipan presence as well. Finishes with a light tartness, medium sweetness and some cherries and marzipan lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a ligh body and medium carbonation. While I think that this would make for an okay Fruit and Field beer, it does explicitely style itself as a lambic and should be rated as such as far as I'm concerned; and as a lambic it's honestly pretty terrible. Just like the standard stuff by Lindemanns, it's more reminiscent of flavored sugar water than a proper lambic, completely missing the rich funk and nuanced complexity that I expect from the style. There's no way that this is actually spontaneously fermented, is there? In any case, it's a pretty drinkable fruit beer that has got just enough tartness to it to prevent the sugary marzipan presence from becoming overbearing, with a decent fruitiness that feels a bit artificial rather than truly fresh and vibrant though.

3.1 Found out of bottle from a store in Tarnow, Poland. Pours a dark purple with bubbly white foam. Pleasant flowery and fruity aroma. Fruity and flowery flavor. Light. Fine summer day option.

2.7 Fruit lambic com leve acidez e muito aroma de cereja por ser produzida com uma quantidade considerável da fruta. Pouca formação de espuma e levemente frisantada o dulçor e aroma de cereja dominam essa cerveja. Boa pedida para uma sobremesa acompanhando um cheesecake.

2.3 Bottle. Clear dark red with a medium sized beige/white head. Looking good. Aroma of (artificial) cherries, marzipan and yogurt. Taste is almost overpowered by the very high levels of carbonation but there are traces of cherry juice and some red berries to be found. Sweet and sour but also surprisingly moderately bitter. I suppose it would work well for mixing up inoffensive summer cocktails.

3.8 Produced 06/03/19 so probably means March 6th 2019. Lovely red colour, good head of foam, some floaties. Not surprising given the age of the bottle. The smell, in a nutshell, sweet cherries. The taste, in a nutshell, sweet cherries with only the slightest hint of tartness. Good mouthfeel. This is a delicious dessert beer. That is all.

2.7 A Caro le gusta Hago esto para tenerlas en mi lista principal Siempre recuerdo cada cerveza

2.8 Bottle at home. Heavy artificial cherry on the nose but the taste is a bit more intense and real. I can’t believe this isn’t part of the wkd range. Would suit nightclubs up and down the country.

3.3 Clear ruby color and a anice white head. cherries, almonds, mazipan. Some yeast.

3.4 Strawberry colour with small head. Smell of marzipan and cherries. Taste is very fresh and dominated by cherries with hints of marzipan, almond and wheat.

3.5 Aroma of intense marzipan, almonds and cherries Dark red colour with sediment and little head Taste of marzipan, cherries, wild yeast and flowers Very low carbonation with thin mouthfeel Very sweet and missing some cherry, but nice

2.8 Biroholik is drinking a Timmermans Kriek Lambicus by Brewery John Martin & Brewery Timmermans at Untappd at Home Taki mocno rozwodniony kompocik wiśniowy. I nie jest to nawet słodkie, kwaśne tym bardziej, dzikie czy lambikowe. Takie trochę puste, bez wyrazu. Chociaż przyznaje, że w aromacie daje pięknie słodką wiśnią, tudzież czereśnią

4.1 Mycket smak av körsbär. Sött och lättdrucken.

2.2 Red, pink head. Sweet aroma with strong almond and cherries. Sweet cherries, and again almonds. Maybe some currants.

2.6 Fles thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een kersenrood bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een sterke kersen geur, de smaak is zoetig en kunstmatig kersen achtig.

1.0 Cherry times a houndred. It’s way too much for my taste. But if you like fruity beers this might be for you. It’s somewhat impressive that you still get the hint of a beer flavor - why I gave it 1 and not 0.5.

2.6 Rami Rami is drinking a Kriek Lambicus by Brewery John Martin & Brewery Timmermans at Kufle i Kapsle Wisniowe, slodkie, kompotowe, wodniste, bez dzikosci czy lambikowosci. Fuj

3.2 Karmosinröd med tunt vitt skum. Doftar torkad körsbär, björnklister, lite mandel. Smaken fyllig, söt, kryddiga körsbär, lite mandel. Eftersmaken hyggligt lång med körsbär och mandel, tunn och lite vattnig på slutet. Bf 2019-04-26. Vinner inte på att lagras, men ändå imponerande att en alkoholsvag kriek smakar gott överlagrad.

2.6 Piana różowa, niska, ze sporą ilością średnich pęcherzy, lekko szyła na szkle, szybko się zredukowała do krążka na bokach. Kolor burgund, ciemny czerwony, trunek przejrzysty. Aromat od razu czuć słodycz, wiśnie, słód, landrynki. Smak jest landrynkowo, słodko, w tle lekko gorzkawo, a przede wszystkim kwaskowato, trochę to pod radlera podchodzi, mamy tu trochę szampana, szczypanie podniebienia. Przygoda na jeden raz za spoko cenę.

3.7 Lekkere Frambozensmaak, niet te zoet, veel smaak, beetje carbonatie. Perfect bij een gerecht of op een warme dag

3.1 Blackfriars, Louvain-la-Neuve - 19/10/2017

2.7 Bottle from Brussels airport into wine glass in Ghana hotel room. Cherry red with thin head. Distinct cherry aroma and taste. Ingredients also list elderberry juice which comes through a tad. A touch sweet but not sickly or cloying like some fruit beers but I would prefer it drier. There is also a bit of an artificial chemical aftertaste sitting behind the cherry which detracts from the overall flavor. Probably not something I would search out for again. Better than some sugar bombs out there but Cantillon does a much better cherry kreik

3.2 Sabor caramelos picota

3.3 Buena retencion de espuma. Sabor intenso a picota, color cereza intenso.Refrescante

2.1 Very sweet, red, cherry that resembles cheap orangeade, aroma dominated by artificial almond flavor, like the one that people add to cakes from little bottles. Maybe a little sour in flavor, not in the aroma. No wild/brett associations. Bleh. I hope that I will have a chance to try oude kriek from timmermans to compare because I really liked oude gueuze.

2.7 Cerveza rojiza con una cabeza espumosa de poca duración. Cuerpo ligero y carbonatación media. Aroma dulce a frutos rojos destacando la cereza. En boca es dulce con un final corto ligeramente agrio.

4.5 Super drinkable. Not tart. Strong cherry flavor. Not too sweet. Not carbonated much.

3.0 Doftar mandelmassa. Mera som en läsk än öl. En svinvarm dag, sure.

2.9 250ml bottle. Za slodki ale przyjemny zapach wisniowy, pachnie jak drylownica po usunieciu pestek z wisni, rozowa piana spora pozostawiajaca koronke na kieliszku Chapeau. Wisniowo, aromatycznie ale finalnie za slodkie

3.0 Bottle. Clear red color, fine pink foam. Sweet cherry, light almond aroma. Sweet taste, light sour, low bitterness. Short lived aftertaste, sweet cherry, lightest of malt. Fresh carbonation, medium body.

4.0 Mycket trevligt. Lite mandelmassa och mycket körsbär. Dela lilla flaskan på 25cl på minst 2 pers
