The Cuvée Armand & Gaston is a tribute to founders of 3 Fonteinen. These gueuzes are composed entirely of lambics brewed exclusively by 3 Fonteinen. Furthermore, even older lambics (up to eight years old!) and the proportion of such old lambics is much higher than in the regular 3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze, resulting in a deeper, more complex taste experience.
3 Fonteinen Cuvée Armand & Gaston is spontaneously fermented, matured in oak barrels, and then sees extended bottle aging and refermentation in bottle. It is unfiltered and unpasteurized.
For this specific geuze blend of Cuvée Armand & Gaston, 3 Fonteinen blended lambics originating from five different barrels and six different brews. More than 50% of the brew volume contains Pajottenland grown cereals from their own Cereal Collective . The weighted average age of the hops is more than 17 years.
