Batch 6. Beginning of 2017, we acquired a second set of 21 Oloroso and 7 PX barrels and aged young lambic on them for another year. We lost 4 barrels along the way and we blended 12 barrels for this blend and 12 barrels for batch 5 (blend 49). Average age of over 2,5 years upon release, no backblending. 100% 3 Fonteinen lambic.

3 Fonteinen Zenne y Frontera is een unieke creatie van Armand Debelder en maître-sommelier Andy De Brouwer. Dit natuurlijke millésime bier is een assemblage van jonge traditionele lambikken die verder gerust hebben op veertig jaar oude authentieke Oloroso en Pedro Ximénez sherryvaten. Zenne y Frontera is de perfecte symbiose van enkele koppige karakters, vele wilde ideeën, immens fijne aroma’s en twee mooie streken.

This natural millésime beer is a blend of young traditional lambics that have aged on forty-year old authentic Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. Zenne y Frontera is the perfect symbiosis of a few stubborn characters, a lot of wild ideas, a vast palette of aromas and two beautiful regions

Hazy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma of big oxidized sherry, oak, toffee, dry cellar funk and lighter green apple and citrus notes. Flavour is moderate sweet and sour. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Piekny, zlozony, serowy, jasnoowocowy, nieco goldenblendowy, ciut przykwasny, malo beczkowy. Chyba najlepszy dla mnie. 4.3+++
