Bottle Hazy, amber/golden body, with a good head, but this disappears quickly. Aroma of citrus, orange, yeast, dust, ... The aroma is not that great. Heavily sour, lightly bitter flavour. This is very great beer, quite balanced and has a nice complexity. It lacks indeed some carbonation in order to be a gueuze, but still it remains nice.

Bottle @ Haand festival. Pour hazy, piss-yellow, with no head. Aroma of grapefruit, lemon peel, sour berries. Taste is pretty darn sour, and pretty darn delicious. Medium body, with a slightly flat carb.

Shared by me at the Monte’s Krown tasting yesterday. 2006 vintage. Very funky smell from the cloudy, hazy oily pour. This beers seems very muted to me. Not as funky, tart or sour as I was hoping for. Heavy on the oak notes. Almost a semi- sweet finish, but not really. This is like an entry level lambic. This would be a great beer from anyone who wasn’t named 3 Fonteinen or Cantillion, but as it does brandish the 3F name, it is only average.

Poured from the 750ml dated 07 Dec 2006.... Poured a slightly hazy copper hue with just a film of foam that dissipates quickly. Aromas are funky basement with hints of musk, sour fruit and a bit of old hay. The palate follows suit with complex flavors of sour fruit and basement funk but has a really nice lingering finish with a touch of that oak to round out the sourness towards the end. Great Stuff not Cheap... Id buy more !

Bottle. Pour a hazy golden ornage with a dense white coloured head. Earlty funky aromas of leather, earth and hay. Tart acidity and some funky lactic sourness. Flavours are likeiwse funky, earthy and sour. Brilliant stuff

pours a hazy golden orange with a tight white head. The nose is more subtle than the Armand 4’s. It Is dominated by funk, light cheese and mushroom, rather dusty, notes of oak and vanilla, hints of mineral and light fruit note. The taste follows the nose, solid funk of mushroom and cellar dust. Light cheese, oak and vanilla with light fruit finish and moderate sourness. The body is light, assertive carbonation and drinkable lasting finish.

06. Hazed gold, small head. Aroma of fruit and a lactic sourness. Taste is sweaty, Bretty funk, wood, earthy bitter, lemon. Really nice stuff, thin texture.

En botella 75cl.embotellada en 2006Lambica con un poco de espuma q retiene lo justo,floral con toques de madera y acida medio alto.Muy buena

Clear amber body with a white head. Strong aroma with lots of green apple, vinegar, grapes, lemon, honey. Great sour flavour with lemon, wood and green apple, with a subtle sweetness. Perfectly balanced.

2006. Clean lemon nose, wet oak, some honey. Beautifully mellow. Gently tart, great on a warm spring day. At 6 years old this seems to be on the decline but the oak still balances the tartness majestically.

Bottle at Gott i Lådan, Billdal, 120421. Cloudy orange, small white head. Rubber aroma, fruity, citrus, vinous, sour, grapes, grapefruit notes. Sourish fruity flavor, sweetish, grapefruit, stable, rubber, apples. Fruity sourish finish with apples, grapefruit and sour notes.
