From the brewer

This authentic kriek beer began life in the oaken vessels at Frank Boon's brewery in the Lembeek region of Belgium. After more than two years aging, Boon's offering shipped across the Atlantic and found its way to the intuitive palate of New Belgium's Brewmaster Peter Bouckaert. After much sampling and internal consultation, Peter and his brew staff created a full-bodied golden lager to round out the light-bodied kriek.

Who's been drinking this

Not a strong smell coming from this. Medium-tart cherry with a kind of timid yeast funk to finish. I remember thinking that there wasn't very much to remember about this beer at all.
