(750ml 2018 bottle from Etre...I think) Pours lightly hazed medium-orange with a thick cream-coloured head that piled over and over, fairly stable, heavy lace. Aroma is rich and deep with heavy, almost sweet wood very prominent, lightly caramelized red apples, preserved apricot, lime peels, solid earthy funk, slightly leafy/menthol edge but quite 'aged' overall and without prominent acidity and with light petrichor. Flavour is drier than the nose suggests, slightly sweet peach and apricot flesh, red and green apple melange, lemon-lime spike of lactic acid, quite prominent wood, wet stone mineral/petrichor, some dry grass/hay, grain popping through, moderate funk, some drying tannin. Finish is dry with a little lactic lemon-lime squeeze, soft stone fruit, leafy with a hint of menthol, wood is quite dry and grippy with nice wet stone cleaning the palate. Light to medium slick body with fine but very filling effervescence despite the huge head piled up in pour. A really nice older lambic (in terms of age at bottling) with enough liveliness to offset the underlying woodiness of the 4 year fraction.

Pours a bit unclear yellow, bigger white head. Scent is full, intense quince. Taste is full, chewy, quince amazingness. Mild lambic funk. Lovely! --- Beer aliased from original tick of Kwee-peer-appel-Quince Lambic on 09 Sep 2023 at 08:30 - Score: Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5. Original review text: Pours unclear, yellow. No real head. Scent is very full, super intense quince. Lacks balance, but does pack a (fruity) punch. Quince juice with a lambic funky backbone (hidden) . Nice, but lacks complexity, balance, and 'beer-ness' , its close to straight up Quince juice.
