Bottle at 3 F. Cloudy, bright yellow, almost pastel. Hoppy, grassy nose, hay, bready malts. Nicely hopped, citrus and grass flavor, some bread and a touch of cardboard. Good, strong bitterness. Full and smooth with rather strong carbonation.

330mL bottle, pours a clear golden yellow with a small off-white head. Very pungent nose of corn, grassy hops and biscuity malts. Flavour is very light with not much character -- light notes of corn, medium bitter grassy hops, and some bready malt backing. Very bland and boring. Surprising that Armsnd would put his brand behind something like this. Not very interesting at all.

Bottle sample at a tasting at kerenmk’s place. Thanks beerandbeyond. Clear golden with a white head. Slightly floral aroma with a bit of bready malt. Flavor has some sweetish malt, slightly bready, and decent hoppy bitterness, a bit floral. Rather light-bodied. Pretty refreshing.

Hazy pale gold beer, little white head. Crispy semi dry palate. Minerally finish. Light brett tone, very light. Very light pale malt, a little citrus. Finishes smooth. Very light easy going lager and no papery bits!

Bottle at home. It pours clear yellow with small fizzy white head. The nose is dough, subtle spice, cracker and grass. The taste is dough, bitter grass, spice, floral, cracker and some pithy citrus with dry, bitter finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Crisp and pretty refreshing. Decent.

Newly rated anno 2022 - 1 years after my original rating, it severely needed a re-check, now understanding the lager style far better - i'm not even gonna take the old one into count.
Pours a clear, pale strawyellow. Medium sized, stable white head. Scent is rich, crisp maltyness. very german-lager style, clean and fresh. Mild traces of earthy hops. Taste is crisp malts, medium intense, refined bitter. clean fermentation profile, medium to medium high carbonation over a medium body. Very clean, well-brewed lager very much in style to the german pilsners. refreshing, spot on hoppyness. Not as creamy, or refined as the best of pilsners, but certainly great. one of the best amongst the Belgian offerings !

33 cl. bottle split with Dylan / Kraddel - purchased @ Brewery - this one must be fresh I assume - clear golden, white head pour - smell is grains, light sweet caramel, flowers, touch nectar - tastes of bitter grains, floral, saaz, hay, light fruitiness with some bitter herbs in the back, grass, light lemon peel - lighter bodied - fine carb. - okay lager but little exiting and not too far from the rest of the ilk floating around

Bottle looks very simple and unusual for 3 Fonteinen. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Starts mild, fine hoppy, modest sourish notes. Finish fine balanced, fruity hints. Quite drinkable. Nice.
