René Lindemans had made an experiment with Lindemans Kriek Cuvée René, involving a very short pasteurization instead of a somewhat longer one normally performed on the Cuvée René beers. The result wasn’t as intented. René refused to sell the beer as Cuvée René Kriek and instead part of it was sold (500 bottles) to De Heeren van Liedekercke.

DHVL bottling. Very dark murky purple red the nose is intense cherry like a load of fresh squeezed cherries and tartness. Taste is quite good! Cherry, cucumber, grape skins, very dry. Almost wine like. Really interesting. Not a lot of sour.

2010 Vintage. 75 cl. fles gedeeld door 2 @ DHL. Fles nr. 15628. Krak dezelfde fles als de standaard Kriek Cuvée René. Donker bruin, rood hoestsiroop eruit ziend, stabiele kleine roze kraag, lichte paarse toetsen. Geur is echt wel zoet, van die zoete kersensap, wel ja Lindemans-stijl ding met wat hoestsiroop en zoetstof erbij, limonade toetsen. Smaak is bitter hoestsiroop, stroop, zoetstof, limonade, zoetstof, gevolgd door een eigenaardige einde, bitter, ferm kruidig met lichte synthetische toetsen gevolg door wat ok lichte azijn, kriekenzuur, vooral in de nasmaak. Lichte smaken die met de leeftijd meegaan, heel lichte kelder onderaan en kleine oxidatie toetsen. Lichtjes stroperig, prikkelend. Beetje maf maar leuk, begrijp waarom zij hiermee niet zijn doorgegaan.
