Brewery: Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen
Country: Belgium
ABV: 6.5%
Style: Lambic – Fruit
Other Notes: Blend°24, Season 21/22

Brewer Description: (from bottle) For this Perzik, we macerated vineyard peaches on two- and three-year old lambics. Maceration took a full four months, before blending with more two-year old lambics. This brings the weighted average age of this fruit blend to 26 months upon bottling. The lambics used in this blend originate from not less than five different barrels and fourteen different brews, of which the oldest was brewed in November 2018. The peaches were manually picked in the Mosel region in Germany, in between the steep hilled vineyards. The final fruit intensity clocks at 362 grams of vineyard peaches used per litre of finished Wijnbergperzik.

Intro: A 750ml corked and caged bottle, blend°24, season 21/22, bottled on 1st February 2022. Poured into a 3 Fonteinen stemmed glass.
Appearance: A lightly hazy golden copper orange colour with a big two finger white head that had pretty good retention and left some nice lacing.
Aroma: Juicy peach, stone fruit skin, peach gummy candy, lemon zest, oak, and funk.
Taste: Lightly sour, tart, peach, orange, lemon zest, wood, and funk.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Another really enjoyable perzik lambic from 3 Fonteinen. Balanced fruit, sourness and funk combined with a good amount of peach in the aroma and flavour. Super refreshing.
