The aroma is rather sour with notes of wood and metal. The color is a slightly hazy orange and it has a beutiful lasting white head. The flavor is a goor sour one with strong notes of lemon, and milder notes of wood and grapegfruit. A really good geuze.

(Bottle 75 cl) This version simply called "3 Fonteinen Geuze" at 5% ABV - bottled 011297. Hazy, dark golden/amber with a fine, white head. Very classical, traditional gueuze - dry and very vinegary nose. Earthy, notes of over-ripe apples. Sour indeed, but far from the most extreme example. 140499

Bottled. Hazy golden colour. Acidic lemony aroma. Clean maltiness. Firm, drinkable and refreshing with balanced acidity. Perhaps less complex than Girardin and Cantillon, but still a great beer.

Bottle, 6%. Very nice earthy notes in the aroma, sour and clean. Cloudy orange colour. Very small white head. The flavour is very citric, but also very clean. Good and lactic, beautiful earthiness. The carbonation is a bit high.

Bottled (2002). Rated already in the end of April, but missed it in my beer logbook. Pale orangeish colour with surprisingly good head for a lambic. Aroma is yeast, fruits and sourness. The flavour is sour apples with hints of also citrus and some yeast. Very refreshing beer after getting used to the biting, crispy sourness. I think this would fit perfectly at a cheese table.

Bottled. Hazy orange coloured with floaties and a huge lasting white head. Acidic aroma of fruits and lactic acid with notes of wood. Acidic and fruity flavour of wood. Dry finish of hops and wood. Nice on a warm day.
