	The first batch is comprised of lambic brewed on January 19, 2012, barreled, and then refined in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry barrels starting in the spring of 2013. It was bottled in March 2014. It is listed as 7% ABV and was released in August 2015. Approximately 4,000 ~~750ml~~ bottles were filled with some being distributed to restaurants and bars around Europe and some being sold on-site at the brewery.

Approximately 4,000 750 mL bottles were filled, with some being distributed to restaurants and bars around Europe, and some being sold on-site at the brewery.

	3 Fonteinen Zenne y Frontera is a creation from Armand Debelder, together with sommelier Andy De Brouwer of [http://www.les-eleveurs.be/ Les Eleveurs]. For the first bottling, the lambic was aged in 40-year-old casks for 12 months prior to bottling. Of the 12 casks, 9 were Oloroso Sherry and 3 were Pedro Ximénez. A portion of lambic from the original batch was left in the cask prior to bottling, and the casks were topped off a second time. According to the brewery, this collaboration seeks to bridge the beer and wine worlds and is also aimed at drawing in the culinary sector.		3 Fonteinen Zenne y Frontera is a creation from Armand Debelder, together with sommelier Andy De Brouwer of [http://www.les-eleveurs.be/ Les Eleveurs].

	Approximately 500-600 bottles of the first batch were available to go at 3 Fonteinen's [[3 Fonteinen Open Beer Days\|Open Beer Days]], September 3-7, 2015. The remaining bottles were sold to bars and restaurants for onsite consumption and pairings based on the culinary focus of the beer.

	In December 2016, in a collaboration with the Belgian specialty store Tasttoe Two, 3 Fonteinen released 150 gift packs (75 available at the brewery and 75 available at Tasttoe Two) called "The Perfect Date" which contained one bottle of the first batch of Zenne y Frontera, one bottle of Bodegas Tradicion Oloroso (30 year Sherry), and one bottle of Bodegas Tradicion Pedro Ximinez (20 year Sherry). The price was ~~195 euro~~.

The price was €195.

	The second batch of Zenne y Frontera is limited to approximately 3,000 bottles. This batch contains lambic that has been in the barrels since the spring of 2013 as well as younger lambic that had been used to top off the sherry barrels that were not fully emptied in a type of Solera method. The average age of lambic in the second bottling is more than 45 months.		The second batch of Zenne y Frontera was limited to approximately 3,000 bottles.

	Between 2017 and ~~the~~ late summer of 2019, no new batches of Zenne y Frontera were released. However, four new batches were blended and bottled in 2018, two of which (batches 3 and 4) used the Solera method extending the average age of the lambic used to as old as 60 months. Batches 3 and 4 of Zenne y Frontera saw the return and subsequent discontinuation of the Solera method of blending these lambics.
