2014 vintage, poured into a decanter, at the Lambik-o-droom. Semi-hazy amber pour with a thin, velvety off-white head. Easily identifiable 3 Fonteinen lambic funk, green apples, mineral notes, light fruit oxidation, a bit of grapefruit, sherry (or I should say Oloroso), very light caramel, oak, light vanilla. Very interesting to have side-by-side with Oloroso and PX. Compared to batch 2 - Solera, this one is drier, much more funk-forward and a bit more oaky, as well. Very similar to the Armand & Gaston. Absolutely delicious, I think I prefer this just a bit more to the second batch, though it migh just be because of its age.

Bottle @ home. Hazy yellow colour, white creamy foam. Very nice and complex geuze. Light sweet, grassy, crispy, woody and vinous. Very well balanced and complex but not the best in the 3F series. If I compare this with the new Boon Vat series, I like them more. But maybe I had too high expectations of this beer.

From a 75 cl bottle at the De Heeren van Liedekercke in Belgium. Pours a cloudy gold with an off white head. Luscious aroma of oak and hay. Deep layered flavors of funk. Delicious.

Bottle shared at Lambik-o-droom. Pours clear golden. Aroma is funky, but also with a log of sherry notes, feels rich already there. Body is medium, softly sour and tart, with a rich sherry note and decent funk. Palate lingers on sour and sherry notes. An impressive feat, great balance and an incredibly smooth experience. Absolutely great!

Cost me a case of beer to bag this whale, but what the hell. Shared among friends. Pours clear golden, small white head, dissipates quickly, some lacing. Aroma is huge funk, basement, sweat socks, horse blanket. Sherry notes as well. Flavor is dry, light tart, medium funk, a bit of spice, port. Light body, hints of spice.
