    The beer pours a translucent gold colour with a generous white fluffy head which quickly dissipates after pouring was complete. The aroma is vomit, pure unadulterated vomit. Had I not poured this myself, I don’t think I would have drank it. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, mild carbonation. The taste is better than the aroma. There wi a definite hoppy taste. It is an easy drinking beer, went down well.

    The beer pours a dark brown with a fluffy tan coloured head which didn't very long. The aroma is malt and sugar. It is a sweet smell. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied, slightly creamy, and medium carbonated. The flavour is primarily malty, but there is a peppery sense to the taste as well as an almost licorice taste.

    The beer pours a brownish black with a small head that disappears quickly. The odour is that of roasted malts with some spices such as clove. The mouthfeel is creamy, medium bodied, somewhat dry, and very little carbonation. The flavour is more of the malt and spices that come through in the aroma.

    The beer pours a dark translucent gold colour with a 0.5 inch white head. The aroma is very weak with some barely discernable hoppy notes. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with some mild carbonation. The flavour is alright with no strong overpowering flavours. Very drinkable, but nothing special.

    The beer pours a dark brown into the Trappist chalice with a huge tan head that lasts throughout the beer, getting rocky as it slowly dissipates. The aroma is a mixture of yeast, malt and fruit such as plums. The mouthfeel is highly carbonated and full-bodied. The flavour is malt, with some hop bitterness.

    The beer pours a dark translucent golden brown with a thin white head. The aroma is very strong on the hops. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied, creamy, and with mild carbonation. The flavour is strongly hoppish with a pink grapefruit aftertaste.

    Bottle wrapper says 'Leifman's Kriekbier, biere aux cerises, 6% alc./vol'.
    The beer is a beautiful ruby red in colour with a medium sized tan coloured head. The aroma is sour cherries and not much else. The mouthfeel is puckering, full-bodied, slightly creamy and champagny. The flavour is powerfully sour cherries, and a huge bite on the back of the tongue.
