3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze Golden Blend is a blend of one-, two-, three-and at least 25% four-year old lambics. Spontaneous fermentation, patient maturation in oak barrels, and continued evolution in the bottle result in a distinctively complex beer.
No two bottlings are alike, as there are multiple variables in the blending process, a variety of barrel sizes and shapes, differences in aged lambic proportions, etc. When cellared properly, 3 Fonteinen Golden Blend can be aged for several decades. Traditional lambic is living, cultural heritage rooted in the Zenne valley! Bottle fermented, unfiltered and unpasteurised.

0.375 l bottle from 'Craftbeers', blend n°31 • 20|21, bottled in March 2021. Hazy, deep golden orange with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Slightly sweetish, sourish, rather fruity, gently funky and slightly vinous aroma of overripe lemon, leather, oak, horse blanket, gooseberry, apple, some hay and hints of white pepper. Minimally sweetish, gently sour, rather fruity, gently funky and a bit vinous taste of overripe lemon, leather, oak, hay, horse blanket, gooseberry and some apple, followed by a medium long, quite tart, rather woody-dry, a bit minerally finish. Medium body, quite astringent and fairly effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Very elegant, sophisticated and superbly balanced Geuze.

golden, small white head that soon disappears
super nice rounded and smooth lambic aroma, not that tart or sour, almost more like oranges than citrus fruits, and then a lot of wood and a bit of wild grain fields in the nature.
flavor has a lot of leather and wood, almost too much, and a mild sour base. flavor is also very rounded and smooth, the end is dry and woody, and goes more sour. I think it is much more sour than i immediatly could taste - the wood and leather covers up the sourness.

Well stored bottle from my cellar. Quite clear golden body with a small white head, lively carbonation like champagne bubbles. Aroma is super smooth and soft with funk, mild wood, light acidity, fruit and ripe apple. Flavor is also extremely smooth and easy drinkable with soft Brett, ripe fruit, wood, smooth and mild acidity. Perfect balance both in flavor and body, long lasting aftertaste. One of the best Geuzes I have tasted.

Bottle from my secret Santa!
Hazy dark orange pour, with a big, rocky, white head. The aroma is simply sublime. Lots of citrus, musty hay, thick funky horse blanket, and some woody, earthy stale hops, and woody barrel. I can’t get my nose out of it. The mouthfeel is perfect, and the carb is soft, but still solid. The finish is Incredible. Loads of thick woody funk. Lots of hay, barnyard flavours, woody hops, subtle citrus, and a citrus pith bitterness and solid throat lingering sourness. Jesus this is just about perfect. I don’t want this to end. Holy hell this was awesome!
