Fruitful Pursuits Quince 2022 is a blend of both Mixed & Spontaneous Fermentation barrels refermented on quince. This super unique fruit was suggested to us by the team at Steve & Dan’s Fresh BC Fruit and has quickly become a favourite. The blend of 1, 2 & 3 year barrels spent 2 months refermenting with hundreds of kilograms of fully ripe quince. The fruit adds a punchy flavour and aroma that is intensely floral, honey, and pear-like. It brings exceptional texture with a full and velvety tannin structure that coats the palate, complimented by the poppy acidity and ester fruitiness of the blend.

Poured from 750mL bottle (2022 vintage). Hazy blond gold with minimal white head. Quince forward, feint leather in the background with some earthy barnyard quality.

Bottle pour at Barrel Fest 2025. Pours hazy pale blonde with a white head. A ton of fruit notes on the nose from the quince; some pepper and dry grass. Flavour has a really nice quince character, some base level of funk that's really nice. This is an excellent quince beer.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy bright golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is wonderfully funky, with lots of quince, stone fruit pith, barnyard funk, leather and oak — wonderfully fragrant. Flavour is complex as hell, with tons of floral quince character, intense barnyard funk, leather, oak, and a touch of stone fruitiness. Not too sour, with a wonderfully dry, barnyardy character. This is damn impressive.
