Looks great. Quite bright, jammy and juicy, lots of grapes and berries, restrained acidity, mild funk. Soft woody dryness. Fairly clean to finish, nice fruity-berry-grapey sweetness. Wonderful stuff.

(Bottle, Brasserie Cantillon, Brussels, 19 Sep 2025) Dark red colour, almost purple, with frothy pink head. Fruity nose with notes of grapes, red wine, blood orange, black-currant and barnyard. Fruity, tart taste with grapes, red wine, pink grapefruit, red fruit and barnyard. Hardly any bitterness. More than medium body, dry. Complex, tart and tasty, with a generous grape character. Excellent beer!

Amazing raspberry and blueberry nose with nice funkiness and fruitiness’s . Full on tannins rich dry palate but the wine is so over powering you get a fair amount of bourse blanket funk in there are well but this is really big and bad ass. I love it.

750mL bottle at Cantillon for Quintessence 2025, pours a deep dark mahogany with a large beige head. Aroma has lots of musy red wine grape skins, moderate barnyard funk, and a touch of earthy leather. Flavour is complex, with a wonderful red wine grape skin character that combines well with the barnyard funk. There’s some earthy, almost roasty malts underneath. Beauty.

Bottle pour at Quintessence 2025. Pours murky mahahony with a pink head. Great barnyard funk, almost horse blanket, dark grape character on the nose. Flavour has musty old blankets, lots of barnyard funk, dark red grapes, good tannins. This is excellent.

Bottle at Quintessence. Deep purple. Like my other reviews, tons of fruity and spicy grapes. I don't get much age at all here. Lovely.

Bouteille 75cl lors de la Cantillon Quintessence 2025.
Pourpre, col fin crémeux rosâtre.
Frais fruité avec une bonne dose de fruits noirs rouges – sec et poussiéreux en bouche, fruité marqué – baies rouges rappelant un côté sauvage nordique, raisin en appui avec un caractère portant presque sur une note de feuilles de tabac qui passe bien avec le caractère du lambic.
