Commercial Description:
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.

Cloudy gold. Nose is funky but restrained lemon, tart wheat, some strawberry & fruit. Flavor is lighter lemon, tart but not overly so. Some malt still shines.

Draught, Hazy orange colour, not much head. Aroma is sour fruits, apples and very earthy. Flavour is pretty much the same. Very pleasant to drink, even slightly watery compared to other lambic from the brewer.

Dark golden slightly hazy body; Very cow shit like quite deep nose with lots of pleasant apple aromas behind; Pleasant slightly sour body with a soft texture, very little sharp carbonation; Medium long pleasantly sour finish, malty, minty, slightly harsh and a very little to thin.
