3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek is the result of macerating hand-picked whole sour cherries on young lambic for at least four months, in a proportion of one kilogram of fruit per litre of lambic. The kriek lambic is then blended again with more young lambic to obtain a minimum intensity of 35% fruit, and is bottled immediately afterwards. These bottles are then stored in our cellars for at least five months so that the kriek lambic can develop into a beautiful, traditional, and refined Oude Kriek. With a pleasant tartness and organic notes of almond and cinnamon as it warms in the glass, 3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek, will age perfectly but may lose some of the vibrant red colours and forest fruit aromas. This unfiltered and unpasteurised lambic is all-natural with no artificial juices, syrups, or sugars added. Traditional Lambic is living, cultural heritage rooted in the Zenne valley!

375mL bottle at Lambik-O-Droom. Pours murky red with a white head. Red cherries and funk on the nose. Flavour has tart red cherries and a great funky barnyard character. Very nice.

Impressive aroma of tart sour cherries, sugary sweet and intensely sour. Good dose of wet hay, and a considerable amount of funk. Lively carbonation, with an unbelievable sour finish. Sticks to the ack of your throat. Great lambic!

28-01-2015 drank 25-04-2016. Bottle at home. Aroma is sweetish and tart cherries, sour red fruits, oak, funk, light malty. Flavour is nicely sour and tart with a little sweetness. Body is medium, finish is rather dry. Very nice, lots of tart and sour cherries with a hint of sweetness for balance, great drinkability, yes I love it.

Аромат прекрасен, много ягод и фруктов, в основе спелая вишня и косточки, как будто даже черешня, немного компотика, сухость, есть пресная нотка от сена и вообще фермы, немного других ягод. Цвет тоже супер, томный оттенок мутно красного цвета, пенка на удивление не маленькая, розовая скорее. Вкус тоже выше того что ожидал. Немного фермы вместе с корзиной вишни и косточки, кислота весьма сильная, прям щиплит во рту. Даже немного цитрусов появляется при глотке, также снова копмотик из ягод. Послевкусие плавное, и длительное, ферма снова в деле, но все очень сбалансировано.

Semmi hab, vörös szín. Intenzív, meggyes, enyhén animális illat. Száraz, savanykás, maggyes, kissé animális íz. Közepesen testes, alig szénsavas, nem keserű. Finom meggyes.
