2017 bottle. Clear golden color with huge carbonation and a huge creamy white head. Aroma is citrus, some stinky feet, some fresher fruits, goosberries. Taste is dusty malts, funky, leathery, a bit sugary as well, booze in the back. Oily mouthfeel with a surprisingly soft carbonation. Fun, but quite weird.

Bottle thanks to Brian. Pours a cloudy orange gold with thick frothy white head leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is strong funk, rubber, oak, stone fruit. Medium body, funky, cheese, grape skin, light dry finish, very good.

Vintage 2006. 375mL bottle, pours a hazy dark amber orange with a small off-white head. Nose brings out light barnyard funk, with some leather and light oxidation. Flavour is along the same lines, with light barnyard funk, some leather, a bit of a vinous character, and very minor oxidation for such an old beer. This has held up impressively. Very nice.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A hazy deep golden beer with a huge most good lasting off-white head. Aroma of sour grapes, yellow fruits, some wood. Taste of mild sour yellow fruits, yeast, wheat, grapes, quite nice!

Bottle from 3 Fonteinen in Lot. 2017er Version. Fresh sour nose. The beer starts funky with lots of horse blanket. Deep fruity with a nice sourish ending. The blonde Tripel is nearly gone behind the sourness, deep and refreshing with a great funky sour ending. Soft with still hints of Belgian yeast. Nice smooth sour, moderate bitter, nice.

2006 375mL bottle drunk 5/11/17.
Wanted to hang on to this to see if the Duyster’s beer would lose its sweetness and hopefully the lambic would really take over. It’s still well-carbonated, with a big white head and a clear brassy-bronze golden body.
Tons of peach ester intermingled with alcohol, light lactic acid and lots of rich honey and caramel. There are still some off-notes, even after 11 years, including strong cotton candy, light saccharine and a bit of metal. Really just seems like a boozy tripel which has been pumped full of sugar. If the lambic has helped this at all, I certainly can’t tell.
In the mouth it fares even worse. Sugary and sweet with sharp alcohol and odd, almost vegetal-tinged acidity on the finish. Powdered sugar, heavy cotton candy, big peach and bubble gum esters, too much caramel...the list goes on....Lightly engaging carbonation and a syrupy, slick, sweet body. I remember this one being pretty gross when young but it looks like age didn’t help it either. Oh well.

Bottle - Vintage 2012 - Soured and apple and green grape. Glossy gold with a nice beige head. Sweet, light earthy and oak notes with an umame note. Odd. As it sits and warms the nose and taste to get better and more typical, but still not great.

2012 Bottle (37,5 cL) Clear and ever so slightly hazy bronze and copper coloured body with a very thin off-white head. Aroma of sour gueuze with a touch of yeast, bread, grain and alcohol, but finishing with the sourness - nice! Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive effervescence up front with a nice sour quality that hits up front and then shows a lot of the bread, yeast, grain, alcohol and very elegant grassy and biere de garde flavours that finishes with the added punch of a gueuze. Aftertaste is nice and pungent with the yeast and sour qualities, but very smooth, especially for the alcohol content, but makes sense with the age in the bottle and the sediment. Overall, a nice and rich, elegant beer that shows very nicely and has some great flavours and subdued, complex notes that only touch near the finale. Great to sample and well worth saving! I sampled this 37,5 cL corked and caged bottle as #9 of my set of 13 special tastings for celebrating #6000, with this one being extra special, since the vintage is the year of my first born kid! I sampled this 37,5 cL corked and caged (2012 bottle) purchased from Bier Tempel in Bruxelles, Belgium on 18-January-2015 for €3,50 sampled at home in Washington on the other side of the Atlantic on 21-March-2017.
