3 Fonteinen Hommage: Difference between revisions

Line 11:

When the 2013 batch was released, 3 Fonteinen reused the previous European label and just stamped it with the new date. However, a new label was created for the US release. What's interesting about this new US label is that it does not say that there are 5% cherries in the new batch. It's not clear if this was an omission from the label or the beer.

Batch 1 and Batch 2 (European) Bottle Text (translated):

Line 20:

A blend of lambic beers brewed at 3 Fonteinen, with an addition of 30% whole fresh raspberries from the fabled Payottenland. This unfiltered beer will enjoy a spontaneous refermentation in the bottle. No artificial colors or flavor enhancers were added. Lambic is brewed only from 60% barley malt, 40% unmated wheat, hops, and water.

For decades, Armand Debelder has worked as a Geuze blender - as did his father - mixing young and old lambics from other lambic brewers to create a classic Belgian beer. Recently, Armand has started brewing his own lambic. The 3 Fonteinen beers are among the few very traditional and authentic Geuzes and Lambics being made in Belgium today.
