3 Fountains Oude Geuze 04-02-2000 - 75 CL

A real Geuze. A blend of 1, 2 and 3 year old lambic, unfiltered and unpasteurized and aged in the bottle for at least 6 months after blending. Further fermentation in the bottle gives this gueuze its famous champagne-like freshness. The lambic used in it is brewed exclusively with 60% barley malt, 40% unmalted wheat, matured hops and water, spontaneously fermented by wild yeasts and aged in oak barrels. 3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze is a blend of one-, two- and three-year-old lambic. Spontaneous fermentation, patient maturation in oak barrels and continuous evolution of the ecosystem in the bottle result in a remarkably complex and elegant natural beer. No two bottlings are the same, as there are multiple variables in the blending process, a variety of barrel sizes and shapes, differences in the proportions of aged lambic in the blend, etc. When properly stored, 3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze can age for decades. The aromas and flavors will evolve from notes of vibrant fresh citrus, spicy and grassy notes to a soft, oaky stone fruit bouquet as the lambic continues to develop over time. Lambiek and Geuze are living, cultural heritage rooted in the Senne Valley! Taste, savor, enjoy and experience this bottle-fermented, unfiltered, unpasteurized and unadulterated beer with new and old friends!
