Commercial Description:
Unblended lambic available on draught at the 3 Fonteinen brewpub.

Please note the age of the sample you are reviewing when entering your rating. While many factors determine whether you have had "Jonge" or "Oude" Lambik, a general rule of thumb is to enter 1 year-old or older lambik under "3 Fonteinen Oude Lambik" and anything less than 6 months-old under "3 Fonteinen Jonge Lambik".

For those between 6 and 12 months of age, you should take in to consideration the character of the lambik. Samples presenting themselves as hazy/cloudy, with some head-formation and residual sugar should be entered as "Jonge Lambik", while those that are drier, higher in clarity and with little/no head formation should be entered as "Oude Lambik". If in doubt, message JorisPPattyn.

An unclear orange beer with a fine orange head. The aroma is primarily sour but with notes of sweetness as well as lemon and wild fermentation. The flavor is lovely sour with notes of grapefruit, lemon, and oranges. A great Lambic.

Sampled from cask at Akkurat, Stockholm (7%).
Cloudy orange with rich head. Concentrated citric aroma. Wonderful soft mouthfeel. Fresh and fruity - lemnon juice! Some grassy hops in the background, a just a hint of barnyard. Superb.

Hazy amber golden, completely lacking head. Distinct, tart Brett aroma. Slightly watery body with a marked sourness. All the typical Brett characteristics: horse blanket, donkey manure - you name it. All fun stuff. 190506
