Boon Mariage Parfait Kriek

Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8

This is the perfect kriek, or so the name would imply, and personally, it is pretty damn good. A dark cherry red pour with a thin pink set of bubbles that resemble a head. Tart fruit, yeast, funk, and vinegar make up the bouquet. Lots of sweet and tart cherry in the flavour. No hint of the 8% alcohol.

The beer pours a translucent dark scarlet colour with a thin pinkish head. The aroma was cherries, vinegar, and wheat. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was tart cherry with notes of old wet grains and blackberries. A very good kriek.

Clear dark ruby red with small redish foam head. Aroma is sour cherry, taste is sour with cherry flavor and some banana far away. Nice beer for a change in tone, away from the usual. (Velp 201306)

pours a deep dark cranberry hued body with a head of raspberry sherbet but slowly fades away. The aroms is dark tart cherry and has a hint of brie rind and some light barnyard hints that mix in with it but they remain very light. There is some fruit skins aroma in the finish. The taste is dark cherry fruit flavor and some raspberry tartness mixed in. There is a cherry sourness that lingers after each dry sip. The mouthfeel is a medium-light mouthfeel with a tight little fizz and no alcohol heat or astringency noticed. Could have used a little more fizz.

Deep apple cider mash color with a nice sour apple/cherry aroma. Bitter grape feel, actually kind of dry and subtle, but damn good.
