3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek 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. The kriek lambic is then blended again with more young lambic to obtain a minimum intensity of 35% fruit, and is bottled immediately afterwards. These bottles are then stored in our cellars for at least five months so that the kriek lambic can develop into a beautiful, traditional, and refined Oude Kriek. With a pleasant tartness and organic notes of almond and cinnamon as it warms in the glass, 3 Fonteinen Oude Kriek, will age perfectly but may lose some of the vibrant red colours and forest fruit aromas. This unfiltered and unpasteurised lambic is all-natural with no artificial juices, syrups, or sugars added. Traditional Lambic is living, cultural heritage rooted in the Zenne valley!

Taster at home courtesy of Sander, big thanks. deep red clear color, small white head. smells marzipan, bit leathery, some funk, barnyard, lots of bitter almonds, acidic. nice smell. medium body, light carbonation. tastes cherries, marzipan, cherry pits, light hay, lightly citric. finishes lightly sour with notes of cherries, marzipan and cherry pits. very nice one, from the smell alone I did not expect so much, but taste is very nice, very subtle carbonation, which brings the cherry flavours out more though. overall very good stuff.
