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.

Bottle: Poured a red color lambic with a nice light red color head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of fruity cherry notes with some light funky notes and barnyard notes is quite pleasant. Taste is a good mix of funky barnyard notes with some fruity cherry notes with some residual sugar notes and light oak presence. Body is about average with good carbonation for the style. Super enjoyable lambic and probably a notch better than the Oude kriek.

0.375 l bottle from 'Beyond Beer', bottled in May 2017, cellared for almost a year. Clear, deep ruby with a thin, slightly fluffy, slowly diminishing, pinkish white head. A little sweetish, sourish, fairly fruity and gently funky aroma of sour cherries, raspberries, bitter almond, oak and some horse blanket. Minimally sweet, moderately sour, rather fruity and slightly funky taste of lots of sour cherries, raspberry, oak, some bitter almond and a touch of horse blanket, followed by a short, gently tart, woody-dry and slightly funky finish. Thin to medium body, gently astringent and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty!

Cork top bottle, 0.375l. Aroma of cherries, red wine, wine cellar, wood and funk. Pours cloudy brown ruby color with thin quickly diminishing pink head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts with sweet and sour cherries, following is vinous with notes of wood and tanins, while mouthfeel is smooth. Medium body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. Fonteinastic...
