The Cuvée Miel is a special version of the Cuvée Armand & Gaston. This geuze is a blend of one-, two-, three- and four-year old lambikken that have been infused with honey on the coolship. While blending, we added some more local honey. The weighted average age of this blend upon bottling was more than 24 months. 100% 3 Fonteinen brewed lambik.

Flaska från 3Fs webbshop. Mörkt gyllenfärgad vätska utan skum. Syrlig och funkig doft. Större, sötare och kanske lite snällare och drickvänligare lambic. Men oj vad gott. Sötsyrliga vinteräpplen, stall, strå, citrus riktigt välavvägd syra. Mycket gott.

750ml bottle at Sovereign, thanks nimbleprop. Poured a dark, orange color with a medium sized white head. Funky lemon and peppercorn. Light floral, with honey. Acidic notes are subtle and pleasant. Really delicious stuff.

750ml bottle at Sovereign, clear burnt orange with a nice cap of white head. Nose really does have honey coming out, huh, floral, the funk and lemon are lurking but it's not in your face like other bottlings. Flavor has honey comb and dandelion, oak arrives and the oude components hit but the honey really rounds the edges off. Well balanced. Finishes dry, long and without the sharp acidity you might expect. Good vintage. 9 5 9 5 17

Corked bottle from The Gull, North Vancouver; blend n.67 2021, bottled 2021-07-28
Hazy golden colour. The aroma is moderately funky, with possibly some honey note. Aggressive acidity, seems young, but also bold funky notes; it gets a bit more woody and rounder in the finish.
This is an aggressive Lambic for 3 Fonteinen, but also one with strong funky character.
