Liefmans Kriek-Brut (unknown release)
Wow, this is really good! Fruity, cherry beer.
Draft at Bavarian Lodge
Comparing this to the Zephyros from the day before, this was somewhat less appealing though it is, I think, meant to have a similar flavor profile. The sourness is sharper, more unrelenting, and I don't think I got any interesting hop flavors. Maybe the elderflower in the Zephyros is what made the difference? Or maybe this was just not as well-conceived.

Medium-tart sour base but with a sweet cherry overtone. Not very funky. Cherry is a bit sweeter than I'm used to for this style of beer, so it feels more like a New Glarus-type beer than a regular Kriek. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

So perfectly balanced... Fruit is perfectly balanced by the sour and just that hint of mustiness.
