Description

3 Fonteinen Intense Red Oude Kriek is blend of young lambic with 40% cherries added. It is bottled in 37,5cl bottles and is listed at 5.00% ABV.

History / Other Notes

3 Fonteinen Intense Red Oude Kriek was released to coincide with the 2013 Toer de Geuze. It represents a departure from traditional 3 Fonteinen labelings as it does not have the emblematic 3 that is present on other labels. Intense Red was released both in Europe and North America starting in late 2013 and received label approval for distribution in the United States on August 24, 2013.[1]

A second batch of Intense Red was bottled in May of 2014 and saw release in Europe in early 2015.
