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.

Bottle. Pours somewhat hazy amber with airy off-white head. Clear aroma of wild yeast and dust, with malty notes and mild touches of fruit. Intensely dry, vinous flavour of Lambic yeast, with malty touches. Dry and dusty aftertaste. Wonderful.

Bottle, 750 ml. Cloudy orange with white head. Funky, cellar, some citrus notes, barrel. Medium sourness. Still not super complex, but nice nevertheless.

I can see why the ratings were mellow for this blend but I still love it. Slight tartness on the finish with hints of acidity, definitely packs a punch upfront, but still gorgeous nose. Could be smoother but still loved.

Bottle. Almost clear golden. Bright funk, peach, apricot, oak, a bit more sour than regular 3F geuze I would say, more also more tannic which gives it a fuller body. Very nice.
