For this small batch Druif, we macerated Fiano pomace for a tad over two months, before blending and bottling. We used three-year old lambikken only, rendering the weighted average age up to 36 months. The final fruit intensity is 300 grams of Fiano pomace per litre of Druif.

Small white rim over lightly veiled orangey golden beer. Very sulphury nose, immediately upon opening, going to more intimated fruitaromas when sniffed closeby. Grape, white wine, wet wood. Sour, acids from wood, grapes, lambicflavours, all in good balance. Sharp, but not aggressive. Oakwood. Serious dry-out effect, acidburn and -thinning. Very nice grapelambic. Just the sulphur in the nose is a tad too present. Rest is wow. Txs to Stef!

750mL bottle. Pours cloudy deep yellow with minimal white head. Aroma has horse blanket, manure, wet straw. Flavour is quite sour, notes of funky horse blanket, very tart, tannic grape skins. Vinous character is perhaps a bit too strong and acetic, but still fantastic.

Hazy and pale. Thin head. The aroma is vinous, medium leather, with a touch of wood, and mild bugs. The palate is lemony and tart, with again a mild bugs. Fairly sharp, assertive, with a sort of floral grapeyness. A light bitterness in the finish, a touch of vinous sweetness. Very good.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy bright golden orange with a small white head. Aroma has some petroleum, white wine grape skins, and gentle funk. Flavour has lots of petroleum jelly, with light white wine grapes, gentle acidity, and a hint of funk. Nice vinous character, but there's not a lot of funky depth. It's good, but not one of the finer 3F's.
