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.

Poured from 375mL bottle (assemblage no 24 - seizoen 17/18). Hazy deep gold with small white head. Funk and barnyard, nice and balanced. Easy drinking. Good stuff.

Lovely funky nose, classic 3F. Some slight green apple notes, citrus, woody, incredibly well balanced. Very smooth, with a lovely off-dry finish. Mildly vinous blend of 1,2,3 and 4 year-old bottles. Did a disservice to drink out of plastic

Pours unclear, amberblonde. No head. Scent is full-on funk, wet oak. Funky. Taste is full, mild acidity . Loads of oak, lemon acid sticks out, but doesn't dominate the acidity. Lovely batch !

From 75cl bottle @Pien Brewpub. Labeled: 3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze Golden Blend (season 18 - 19) Blend No. 91. Poured golden with a red haze. Rhubarb, tartness, mild funky nose. Later some wild strawberry notes in flavor. Sweeter than I expected, but delicious still.
