    For this specific Oude Geuze Golden Blend, we blended lambikken from three different barrels and five different brews. The brew consists of more than one third of 50-month old lambik. We also added one sherry barrel of 34-month old lambik. This way, the weighted average age of the blend upon bottling is 28 months. About one third of the 3 Fonteinen lambik was brewed with Pajot grown cereals. This is the same blend as the 32nd, but with a different sherry barrel.

History:

3 Founteinen was founded in about 1887 as a cafe and Geuze distillery, a place where the gueuze is produced by mixing old and new lambic, taken from different breweries. The company was bought by Gaston De Belder in 1953, it expanded to include a restaurant and left it to his sons, Armand and Guido in 1982. In 1998 a brewery plant was bought. Besides using its own lambic, 3 Founteinen lambic used by Boon, Girardin and Lindemans for Geuze. 3 Founteinen is one of the few remaining geuze distillery.
