3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
750 ml bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, Tampere.
Pours a cloudy golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of barnyard, lemon, peach and . Flavour of pale malts, barnyard, sour lemon, light hops and sweetish fruits. Medium bodied, quite high carbonation and a light citrusy finish with mild bitterness. Summery and refreshing.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle at Akkurat. Stockholm, September 28th, 2011.
Lightly musty and oxidated and first, beneath that flowery and slightly sweet with a big dash of sour apples. A bit funky - Just how I like it. Body is light and the taste is sourish with a distant sweetness. It’s very clean and refreshing which is something I didn’t expect. Some grass and barnyard in the finish.

UPDATED: OCT 30, 2011 2006 Vintage unlabeled 75 cl. bottle/shared@Kulminator: brief sweet, fruity, yeast, hoppy upfront, bitter (Kerkomse triple) followed by musty, lots of horse blanket, sour lemons, dust, slight grains, cobwebs (3F lambic) with a dominant strong, zesty, spunky bitterness like akin to what you get at the 3F Geuze, fuity, bitter, very hoppy, lemony, musty sour, slightly prickly, really digging this combination of a blond ale and lambic, should be done more frequently/// sampled two more different bottles, the proportions between the two beers does seem vary quite a lot, last one 3F kind of overwhelmed but still great, like it more when the ale is featured more
4.6 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
75cl, 2006 bottle at Kulminator. Needed 15 minutes in the fridge before we could drink it to prevent an explosion. Pours a blonde colour with a beautiful, pillowy white head that dies down to moderate. Classic geuze nose of horse-blanket, leather tobacco pouch, cigar box, lemon and grass. Brilliantly musty with horse-blanket again, Brett, leather and cigar box notes. Unreal! Moderate carbonation and a light CO2 prickle. A foamy mouth-feel with a musty, lemon citrus linger. Dry finish. Only mildly sour, all the classic geuze qualities without the sourness. Really interesting.

Draught @ Gastropub Tuulensuu. Rated on 18.3.2011
Aroma is very earthy with manure notes, but in a good way. Flavour has hops and some sourness from lambic. Too much CO2 on palate. Nice one.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Reuss. 3fonteinen blend called .750ml bottle consumed at kulminator.
Unlabeled bottle and listed as 6.5% abv. Description reports that this is a blend of a belgian ale and lambic from 3font.... Pours a light hazy pale
golden light brown...Aroma is lightly guezelike that collaborate with
a sweeter light grain and lemon accents, some pear to boot... Flavors
are very lightly tart with a soft profile overall that seems like a
combination of a gueze and a lightl hopped earthy pale ale.
Carbonation is effervescent and spritely carbonated. Body is on the
lighter side but works well with the liveliness of the brew itself.
