3.7 Edycja 2019. Słoneczne, klarowne złoto. Taka żółć mirabelkowa. Piana spora, biała, drobna. Aromat kwaśny i belgijski zarazem. Mocno nasycone dwutlenkiem węgla. Aromat dobrze oddaje to, co się dzieje w smaku. Pomieszanie kwaśności z lambika i słodyczy, owocowości tripla. Trudno orzec co wygrywa. Raczej tripel, bo pewnie od niego pochodzi znakomita część sporej owocowo skórzastej goryczki na finiszu. Goryczka pozostaje w długim posmaku wraz z kwaśnością. Piwo ciekawe, złożone.

3.5 Pours clear golden with initial white foam head. Aroma is bit sour, citrus. Taste is fruity, bit bitter. Nice. (Velp 2110)

3.7 375ml bottle shared with the KL tasting crew. Poured a dark hazy golden orange colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is yeasty, zesty citrus, big woody hops.

3.4 Sløret gylden med offwhite skum som legger seg rundt kanten. Aroma hvetemalt gjær humle blomstereng. Smak hvetemalt krydder gjær sitrus humle. Frisk og smaksrik øl fin med fin fylde. Flaske kjøpt på Vinmonopolet Jekta og delt med DjOeye

4.3 I fucking love this. Tripel with 3 fonteinen lambic. Everything I dreamed beer could be. Florals and light coriander. Grapefruit lambic yeast on a light but pertinent influx. Orange peel. Orange hazy pour with decent head. Light tangy finish with a touch of sweetness. Amazing beer. Bottle.

4.2 Shared bottle at Pass trappå kjellerbryggeri 13.05.21. Hazy straw colour. Persistent white head and lacing. Aroma and taste of lemon juice, passion fruit, pure brett, succade and marmalade. Grapefruit bitterness in aftertaste. Good!

3.5 Aroma; farm, sour fruit acids, yeast, poo, gooseberries. Look; off-white flat mat on hazy golden body. Taste; farm, sour fruit acids, yeast, poo, sour wine, gooseberries, marzipan and bhutane, tart malts, and finishes lingering juicy. Feel; allright body n no co². Overall; it`s special. [bottle B@ Systembolaget, as 3Fonteinen Tuverbol, a year ago, T@apartment of PivotekaH7 while waiting for new RBsessions] Retasted 2021-09-10: very nice beer, farmish, fruity, good body.

3.5 Flaska från SB. Gyllenorange lätt disig öl med vitt skum. Doft och smak är fruktig med citrus, örter och brett. Tycker att alkoholen gör sig lite för mycket påmind.

3.7 3fonteinen lambic komt er lekker door alsook de bekende smaak van loterbol. Top biertje 👌🏽

4.1 Flaska från systembolaget. Gyllengul öl med stort vitt skum. Fruktig och jästig med fina toner av trä, brett, kryddor och örter. Torr härlig avslutning.

3.7 0,375l bottle shared @ One Pint Pub. Pours cloudy golden with a medium head. Aroma is slightly tart malts. Flavor is sweet and complex sour malts with some hops. Intriguing. Tasty.

4.0 Orange disig med vit skum. Doftar och smakar mycket brettanomyces. Torr nästan lite cideraktig. Mycket gott

3.5 De 32gp. En copa Teku. Edición 2018. Jugando a The Last of Us y luego a Paths of Sin: Greed. El añadido de lambica se nota bastante, pero el fondo de ale belga lo domina bien, compensando y haciendo que no resulta nada excesiva. Si bien, resulta una birra algo apagada, que pasa algo desapercibida

4.2 0.375 l bottle from 'Drinks & Gifts' at 10% abv, 2018 vintage, best before end of 2023. Slightly hazy, deep amber with a large, foamy, almost stable, off-white head. Slightly sweetish, sourish, quite fruity, gently funky and a bit yeasty-spicy aroma of lemon, horse blanket, gooseberry, wood, some clove and a touch of honey. Slightly sweet, gently sour, rather fruity-funky and a bit yeasty-spicy taste of lemon, horse blanket, honey, clove, white wine and gooseberry, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter, quite tart, gently woody-dry, fairly funky, vinous and a bit yeasty-spicy finish. Medium to full body, smooth, slightly effervescent and gently astringent mouthfeel, average to lively carbonation. Superb balance between the lambic and the Blonde Ale, it's super pleasant because of the sweetness from the malts and the relatively full body. The lambic is quite dominant but the Blonde Ale adds even more depth to it. Very good!

4.0 Bottle v2012. Hazy muddy orange color with white head that quickly disappears and leaves a small ring. Malty and yeasty aroma, you can understand that it’s a blend of Lambic and a triple, light funky, some typical 3F toasted bread notes, citrus, light spice, caramel - sugar notes, oxidized notes, stone fruits. Taste is light sweet and moderate bitter, light acidic notes too. Light to medium oily body with with flat carbonation. Long bitter aftertaste.

4.0 375ml Bottle at share, courtesy of Buckeyeboy. Cloudy amber pour, nice fluffy head. Of course there's the brett, plus notes of brown sugar and some funk Fruity flavors emerge in the taste along with light woody barrel notes.

3.6 Flaska från SB. Ljusguldig smådisig med livlig kolsyra som ger ett högt smutsvitt skum. Fräscht och fruktigt i doften med mycket skal från gröna druvor, päron, yuzu, kumquats, funk och vitt vin. Lambicen ger en fräschör och syrlighet mot den lite mer maltiga blonda basen. Relativt hög beska och en ihängande metallisk ton i avslutningen. Alkoholen ger även lite värme. Funkar fint ihop men hade nästan föredragit en något mindre/lättare version. Väldigt champagne-lik.

3.5 A 375ml corked and caged bottle (grey/silver cap), 2017 vintage, with a best before date of end of 2022. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass. It was a lightly hazy golden orange colour with a two finger white head that had good retention, but eventually settled to a thin cap, while leaving lots of nice lacing. Aromas of funk, brett, light tartness, apple, grape, and maybe a splash of candi sugar and notes of citrus. Tastes lightly sour, citrus zest, apple, grape, Belgian yeast spiciness, and a bitter finish with some boozy notes. Dry, medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Overall the lambic doesn’t come through as much as I hoped, but then again, I read that it was only 10% blend. I think overall it was interesting, but not really my preference especially the somewhat stronger boozy notes than expected.

3.9 2018, 10%

4.2 8-4-8-5-17 Bottle, vintage 2018, three years before bbd. Pours clear golden, with a big creamy head. Aroma is hay and bretty fruits with grapes, gooseberries, white berries and apples, as well as farmhouse notes, minerals and wooden barrels. Medium to full body, with average carbonation. Flavour is tart notes of hay, wood and bretty fruits with grapes, white berries and notes of apples, as well as tannins, farmhouse and notes of pale malts. Dry bretty wooden finish.

Palate was medium bodied with rather high carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, wood, honey, sourness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sour, woody and bitter. A tasty blend of tart and sweet fruity beers.

3.7 Many thanks for this beer to tderoeck. Vintage 2017. Abv was 9%. Half champagne bottle. Uwazam ze gdyby bylo otwarte gdzies w granicach 2027r bylo by lepsze, alko bylo by nie wyczuwalne doszlo by wiecej kwaskowosci i lepiej ogolnie by sie ulozylo, coz niecierpliwosc to niezbyt dobra cecha. Czulo sie alko, piana byla spora szampasnska i trwala o dziwo, metne bardzo. W smaku bardziej slodowe niz kwasne ale, ale i tak w miare dobre bylo to piwo, fajna paskowa etykieta. thx Tim for this beer.

3.9 The aroma of the Bretts, a bit of straw. Bright straw color, slightly cloudy with good white foam. On the palate, esters, a slight acidity, malt, a little hop in a dry aftertaste. The body is medium, carbonation is large.

3.4 Dark golden colour. Very interesting mix. Aroma is very yeasty and has light funk but also candy sugar in the background. Flavour starts with candy sweetness before the dryness and yeastiness kicks in. Finish has a light tang.
