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 very few traditional and authentic Geuzes and Lambics being made in Belgium today.
