3 Fonteinen (Oude) Kriekenlambik 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 (and possibly blended with some more young lambic). Fruit intensity ranges from minimum 35% to 50%. Aside some selected bars (e.g. 20th Anniversary of Akkurat in Stockholm, Sweden), this sour cherry lambic is available at given times in the lambik-O-droom.

From cask at Moeder Lambic Fontainas. Beautiful rich red/pinky purple colour with a massive pink frothy head of tiny bubbles which disappears slowly. Aroma is big cherries, bit of lavender slightly funkiness and a bit sweet too. Taste is slight cherry sourness initially and then mellowing into big fruitiness. Low carbonation but tingly on the tongue. Light bodied but very drinkable. This is a very special beer.

Small glass, restaurant Drie Fonteinen Beersel. Cherry liquor aroma. Sweet and flat. Full cherry flavor with cherry pits and bitter almonds. Full bodied. A bit alcoholic. The essence of cherries packed in a glass. Absolutely great beer! Wished I could have more, but I had to drive.

375ml bottle. Clear, darkest ruby colour with small, frothy, fading, off-white head. Intense morello aroma, a spicy touch of cinnamon and nutmeg. Taste is minimally dry, sweet-ish and tart-ish fruity, notes of morello, a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg; dry finish with a woody cherry kernel touch. Watery texture, watery palate, soft carbonation. Neither too sweet nor sour, very mild and clean, highly drinkable.

Flaska från Beergium. Vackert rödvinsfärgad nästan helt utan skum. Stor djup körsbärsdoft som är både söt och syrlig och har massor av kärnkaraktär som drar åt mandel och tung blomdoft. Smaken är lika djup och koncentrerad som doften, ganska snäll syra men smakoncentrationen gör att den ändå behöver sippas i små klunkar. Mycket gott.
