Historically Faro is a lower-alcohol, sweetened beer made with a blend of lambic and another freshly brewed beer (sometimes called a mars beer) in varying amounts.[1]. Faros are also known to have candy sugar, brown sugar, or cane molasses added. According to Guinard, "was a blend of equal amounts of lambic and mars... and was a sweet, light table beer that had to be brewed and sold before the heat of summer to avoid fermentation accidents and spoilage." Non-lambic beers that were blended in to create the Faro were only brewed until the month of March, from which these beers derived their name. The custom of blending in mars beers into contemporary Faro has subsided and they are now a bledned version of young lambic sweetened with dark candy sugar and caramel coming in around 4.5% ABV. [2] Recent bottled examples include 3 Fonteinen's Straffe Winter and De Cam's Oude Faro De Cam
