3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze Cuvée Armand & Gaston is a blend of one-, two-, and three-year old traditional lambics, all brewed at Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen. Spontaneous fermentation, patient maturation in oak barrels, and continued evolution in the bottle result in a distinctively complex beer. No two bottlings are alike, as there are multiple variables in the blending process, a variety of barrel sizes and shapes, differences in aged lambic proportions, etc. This cuvée, like all of our lambic, is 100% natural, authentic, spontaneously fermented, and crafted with steadfast adherence to tradition, like Armand and Gaston Debelder have always done it. This geuze has fermented in the bottle and will continue to develop its tastes and aromas over its long life when properly cellared. Traditional Lambic is living, cultural heritage rooted in the Zenne valley! Taste, savour, enjoy, and experience this unfiltered, unpasteurised, and unadulterated beer with friends new and old!

Bouteille 75cl, dégustée en solo pour le 21 juillet, au village en Espagne.
BB 26/10/2040, bottled 04/03/2020 - achetée sur le site 3F - winter pack, si je me souviens bien.
De couleur orange-ambre, col encore bien mousseux blanc-cassé se dissipant lentement.
Arôme sur un excellent bouquet de lambics - complexe funk - fruité oscillant entre coing, fleuri, abricot, boisé délicieux presque sur un effet chêne américain frais.
Palais est délicieux laissant de prime abord une belle sensation de boisé frais/barrique tout en accomodant des notes de funk, poussiéreux, vieux cellier, pointe versant sur les amandas, aigreur fine d'abricot-noyaux. Pas d elambic de trois ans dedans - un plus pour un ajout de céréales locales en mod e100%. Mêmme apèrs 5 ans, cela reste franchement délicieux à déguster. Fraicheur de bouche avec un côté fruité rappelant la mandarine - orange givrée et encore le côté amande.

0.75l bottle, courtesy of.... I actually have no clue who shared it at the Hrvatsko Homebrew Prvenstvo, but thanks a ton! Hazy orange-golden body, off-white head. Orange notes, spices and brett in the attractive aroma. Smooth, floral, citric - orange taste, touch of paint, brett, bit acetic, low bitterness. Complex and lovely!

Pours a bit unclear , blonde. Medium sized , stable white head. Scent is barnyard and clear funk, elegant citrus and freshness. Relatively much wood as well. A typical aroma for the modern 3F .
Taste is full, rhubarb-like acidity, even a touch fruity (obviously no rubarb in here) Citrussy, fairly dry, some tannins even. Woody. Vibrant, mild barnyard. High CO2. Decent, pretty unique to the rhubarb like character (never really had that in an unfruited lambic before).

Small bottle. Amber, 1/2cm white head. Horse barn aroma with a slight old lemon note. But then it really picks up. Creamy, open texture. Decent carbonation. Moderately sour with old lemon, autumnal fruit, the barn.
