3 Fonteinen Beersel Lager

3 Fonteinen
Brewed at De Proefbrouwerij
Style: Bohemian Pilsener
Beersel, Belgium

Pours a cloudy orange, with a small white head. Smells ofsome crisp grain, subtle hops, with light citrus and lemon zest. Nothing special, but not bad. The flavor is semi-sweet, with a mild hop presence. a bit overcarbonated in my opinion, but didnt stand out too much. not huge on flavor or excitement, but fairly refreshing. Average.

smells of unpopped corn kernels and light cork .. . great amount of white foam .. .interesting take on a lager, you can tell a lambic producer makes this .. . high spritz . . .would love to try fresh on tap! .. . milhouse eats vaseline on toast!

Pours bright yellow into a shaker. Fluffy bright white head leaves spot lacing as it recedes to tophat and skim surface. Lactic caramel aromas. Crisp and fruity with a lasting sour hop finish.

Yellow color, with an off-white head, faint floral hop, with a swee pale malt aroma follows through on a light-bodied palate with a crisp, fruity pale malt, a spicy flowery hop accent, faint honeyish note, leading towards a dry hoppy finish.

Violent pour from the bottle results in a large, lasting head & a slightly coudy glowing gold body. Nose is grassy & lemony hops, a solid, lightly toasted malt backbone. Strange to say but that malt is ’spritzy.’ Flavor is hoppy - grass mostly, then a rich maltiness, lemon, caramel, a hint of butteryness. Big body.

Bottle, 33 cl. (via Willems) Between clear and hazy yellow color, with medium white head.Aroma malts and hop. Nice for a lager. Thin to medium body. Taste is good for a "pils" malts, little sweet, it have really hops, and bitterness. Finsch is a bit fruity and dry. (for me the best pils i have drink to now)

chiara schiuma abondante persistente note lupplate leggero malto un po anche fruttata in bocca malto poi luppolo amara abbasatanza elevato unico difetto retrogusto un po breve

11.2 fl oz bottle. I have been on the look out for this one since I read about it in Joe Stange’s book. I was delighted to find a bottle at Blue Max in Burnsville, Minnesota. Pour is slight haze golden light copper with a pretty one inch fluffy white head. Aroma of straw, mineral and earthy malt with a mild sweetness near the back. Taste is a nice blend of the straw and grass malt and the biscuit floral sweetness, with interesting floral hop notes near the middle. The finish has the mineral and earthiness. Lingers just long enough to highlight the mineral. Really clean. Palate is medium thin, smooth, very easy drinking. I liked this one a lot. I am a sucker for unfiltered mineral Pils with a decent hop bill.
