These raspberries, hand-picked in the summer of 2019, macerated for three months on stainless steel. While macerating, we only used lambic originating from one brew and from one barrel; no lambic was added prior to bottling. The final fruit intensity is still 371 grams of raspberries per litre of Frambozenlambik. 3F Frambozenlambiek 14 Jan 2020.png

For this Frambozenlambik, we macerated raspberries from Ferme Framboos for four months on jonge lambik at a fruit intensity of 382 grams of raspberreis per liter of lambik. Lighter in color due to the applied maceration technique, the raspberry characteristics in aroma and taste of this Frambozenlambik present themselves while opening up. We let this Frambozenlambik rest for almost 18 months before releasing it. 100% 3 Fonteinen. 3FFrambozenlambik 29 Jan 2020.png

Label

Label Text (Translation):
3 Fonteinen Frambozenlambik is the result of whole, handpicked raspberries macerated in traditional young lambic for at least four months. The resulting lambic was then bottled. Frambozenlambik is a very fruity lambic with an intense bouquet of raspberries and long term cellaring potential. Natural fruit, no juice, syrups, or added sugars. Unfiltered and unpasteurized.
