Hazy orange gold beer, small white head. Quite a light palate, slightly soft and semi dry, sharpish fine carbonation. About as sour a beer as I can genuinely enjoy. A very tart lemon - lime vibe is nicely offset by the natural sweetness of the great old English staple, Quince. White wine vinegar tone starts to burn a little with its acetic acid assault. But still drinkable. If I had another of these, I don't, but if I did, I would age for another 5 years to take the sharpest edges off. Still pretty enjoyable now.

As Cuvée Sofie Kweepeer, thanks Loick for sharing! Medium thick, egg-white, irregularly edged head on a misty, deep and warm orange-hued peach blonde beer. Aroma of a lot of green pear and baked red apple - both very clearly representing the quince, soaked in impressions of sour yoghurt, green gooseberries, dry sherry, wet oak wood, sourdough, rainwater and orange juice. Very fruity onset, crisp, with strong pear- and apple-like flavours from the quince; sour redcurrant-like acidity combats with this quince sweetness, in a spritzy carbonation. Drying lactic sourness supports the fruity acidity in the middle, turning very tangy and yoghurty, completely drying a supple bready malt body underneath; ends with a whole lot of quince, almost 'cristalline' and bright 'green', crunchy and utterly fruity, with the overall sourness continuing to dry the palate. Bitterness remains very low. Cuvée Sofie has proven before that she is a very suitable vessel for all kinds of fruit experiments and here too, she provides a bright and firm framework for the showcasing of a whole lot of quince, exhibiting both apple and pear features in a very pronounced way. Unique as such - most other quince beers I had were not sours - but you'll have to love this apple-and-pear-like quince flavour a lot.

Shared at Bor's. Pours a cloudy golden-pinkish colour with no head. Aroma's: sour, vinegar, quite sharp, but also sweet fruit, actually quite raspberry-like. Flavour is sharp vinegar-y sour, but quite sweet at the same time. Medium bodied. If there hadn't been any sweetness it would have been undrinkably sour, so that saves it. Not very balanced though.

Bottle shared. Fairly hazy golden with an off white head. Aroma of vinegar, very tart raspberry, lemon and lactic notes. Flavour is moderate sweet and heavy sour. Medium bodied with a lactic burn in the finish and soft carbonation.

I Draught /I Bit transparant foam to medium head over hazy if glowing orange beer. Lambic-y nose, fruit & barnyard, lemonrind, horseblanket. Nice. Fruit is not really identifyable, but quince seems logical. Sour, with an exotic fruity, but also bready streak. Lemonjuice finish. Serious acidburn, and no doubt -thinning. Burning MF, sharp, astringent. Really top-sour, but all the same great beer.
