(Bottle 75 cl) This version simply called "3 Fonteinen Geuze" at 5% ABV - bottled 011297. Hazy, dark golden/amber with a fine, white head. Very classical, traditional gueuze - dry and very vinegary nose. Earthy, notes of over-ripe apples. Sour indeed, but far from the most extreme example. 140499

Sep 1, 2008 375ml bottle. Poured a dark yellow, nice white head. Funky, skunky aroma. Tasted pretty good though, slight sourness to it, not overwhelming.

Cloudy dark golden coloured, small to medium white head, lively carbonation, acidic nose. Very sour and acidic over-ripe apples, light wooden and mild yeasty taste with lingering sour and light sweet finish. Refreshing.

Aug 31, 2008 (37.5cl bottle, bottled 14.02.2004) Cloudy, orange colour with a dense, medium-sized cream-coloured foamy head. Moderately acidic and slightly dusty aroma with lemon zest and an almost ethereal spicy (estragon, pepper) note. Moderately acidic and bitter-tart flavour, light to medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Lemon-fruity taste with a mild Lambic-character; dry, moderately acidic and slightly bitter-tart finish. A mild and well-rounded Gueuze (24.08.08).

Aug 25, 2008 Bottle 2006: Pours a hazy deep golden orange with a creamy off white head. The aroma is super funk with a soft malt note in the back with subtle vanilla. Amazing funkiness with leather, farmhouse, horse blanket, acetic acid, rich old oak- just classic wild fermentation. Great fluffy body. The flavor starts with a musty basement note, along with horse blanket, leading to a citric acidity, cobwebs, cork, lemon-rind, a rounded, sharp, wheaty body, and an acidic finish with a late dryness. Has a touch of sweetness on the back when it warms. A quality Lambic with great funkiness and subtlety.

Aug 17, 2008 The aroma is sour with tart fruit, lactic bacteria, yeast, urine, wood, and sugar. The appearance is cloudy and copper with a small head. The flavor is tangy is like the aroma. The palate is average. Overall not something I want again despite being complex and highly ranked here.
