COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The 3MONTS beer : A wonderful return to nature, with its flavour of yesteryear, this is a beer that was drawn from the wooden metal-circled barrels to fill so many mugs in our Flanders bars! Its bitterness comes from our hop fields scattered throughout the region. Brewed by infusions, it is an old-fashioned rising beer made with strong and hearty Flemish hops. Fermented using top yeasts, like the barrel brewers of yore and clamped like bonderised barrels.

Brought home from my EU roadtrip with daddy and bro. Clear yellow with a small white head. Decent fruity yeast aroma, apples and herbs. Flavor is wellbalanced. Nice fruity and sugery malt sweetness, alchohol bitterness and a dry herbal finish. Very carbonated palate.

Subtle aroma, somewhat sweet as honey. Easily drinkable beer, some barnyard and molasses in flavour, reminiscent of belgian blonde ales

GarnotingPete (320) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 12, 2012
Bière dorée et limpide, coiffée d’un épais et mousseux col blanc laissant une fine dentelle au verre. Des arômes floraux avec des notes de pâte à pain et d’alcool. D’une belle amertume moyenne, mais soutenue. De corps solide, elle offre une texture lisse et se termine sur une finale tout en arômes.

mandalarules (69) - Akron, Ohio, USA - JAN 11, 2012
Bottle. Pours a clear bubbly gold/yellow with a large white head. Aroma of bread, citrus, notes of caramel and lemon, slightly metallic. Musky and cellared on the nose. Taste is medium sweet at the start with apples and citrus then goes slightly sour with a slight bitterness toward the end, Frivolous carbonatoin and light textured body. Not all too familiar with the style, but a nice beer nonetheless. Interested to see it cellared for a couple years.

poured from 750 into a tulip. Pours a nice medium/orange gold color. Same color as an aged sauternes Very balanced aromas of funk, sour apples, some malts and a touch of blood oranges too medium bodied with a real smooth feel. Balanced with round flavors of malts, some grains, sour apples, blood oranges and a bit of a tartness as well. This is a wonderful biere de garde. Has a bit of sourness attached to it, but it would not be confused with a flemish red. This is a wonderful beer for those that like farmhouse styles
