3 Fonteinen Braambes Oogst 2020 Blend No. 21 (75cl, 5.5%)

A traditional Belgian blackberry lambic from Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen, bottled at 5.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. It is a limited seasonal blend made with 384 grams of hand-picked blackberries per litre from Ferme Framboos in Huldenberg. Whole blackberries underwent a three-month natural maceration in a 50/50 cut with lambikken from five barrels and five brews, with further lambikken added before bottling. Serve still at 8-12°C in a tulip glass or wine goblet. Tart dark berry fruit leads the aroma, with floral brettanomyces, farmhouse funk, leather, woody tannins and aged oak. The palate is sharp and tart with lactic acidity, dark berry, bretty apple, hay and earthy funk, while the finish is long and drying with berry tartness and woody tannin.
