kraddel (10779) - Antwerp, BELGIUM - OCT 25, 2018Tap at BXL 2018. This kriek was amazing. Not by the pure beer on its own ( couldn't even find the barrel aroma), but it was so. So, so fresh... Juicy to the point its nearly fleshy. Extremely natural cherries over a very mild, funky lambic. Hell yeah. Quality perspective!? Way to young. Taste perspective ? I'd like to drink this daily. Not sure how it will be when it settles, and matures. This might be one of those beers you want to drink 'too' young!
PhillyCraft (11988) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 22, 2018My first pour of the Shelton Brothers festival care of JVR himself, walked straight to the loon booth and ordered one of these. Pours a plum purple red with white head. Notes are beautiful cherry pie, et tu brut, kriek, light vanilla, whiskey, dark cherry, and oak. Medium to fuller mouthfeel. Impressive stuff.
Rask0lnikov (2713) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - OCT 14, 2018On tap at BXL 2018. Pours beautiful dark red colour. No head. Dark mellow cherries, notes of oak, slight vineous notes, really slight notes of whisky in the aroma. Still the smell is delicious. Lots of cherries at first. Notes of whisky in the middle. Cherries as well. The combination of cherries and the taste of the whisky from the barrel work really well together making the beer so delicious. Cherries and oak in the end. No carbonation. Really well balanced, tasty brew.
Juks (4443) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - OCT 12, 2018At BXL. Pours clear ruby red, almost no head. Aroma is sweet cherries, honey, barrel, whiskey. Taste is soursweet, woody, whiskey notes, cherry marmalade. Well balanced smooth kriek. Medium body, low carbonation. Super aroma.
Mortlach (4352) - Rome, ITALY - OCT 11, 2018UPDATED: OCT 16, 2018 On tap @Ma che siete venuti a fà (Rome). Rubino sangue di piccione, un filo torbida, schiuma assente. Al naso note di torba, iodio, plastica, quindi emerge la ciliegia, piuttosto intensa ma un po' sporcata dalla botte. In bocca va decisamente meglio, ciliegia intensa e acidità spiccata, netta e tagliente, lunga e persistente. Corpo medio, carbonazione assente. La sensazione è che la botte abbia tolto più che aggiungere, ma la nota acida in bocca è finalmente degna di nota!
