Season 2019-2020. Assemblage #85. Bottled on . on "This Doesjel was bottled on the 1st of December of 2020 and was intended to be an Oude Geuze. Because of the high proportion of older lambikken, the fermentation did not continue in the bottle and the blended lambik beer remained flat. The yeast dozed in, hence the name – a local dialect for that typical little sleepy knock you get over noon. In return, with a natural-white-wine-like aroma and malty citrussy taste, the resulting beer is a subtle lambik blend, with a weighted average age of about 30 months upon its release. The oldest lambikken were brewed at the beginning of 2018. This is the first Doesjel in 75cl bottles since 2006."

Assemblage #83. Bottled on 13/06/2019. This specific Intens Rood has macerated for six months on its fruit. The lambic in this blend originate from two different barrels and two different brews. Final fruit intensity of 475 grams of sour cherries per liter of Intens Rood.

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #8. Bottled on 17/11/2022. "For this Oude Geuze, we blended lambikken from three different barrels and six different brews, brewed by both Brouwerij Lindemans (38%) and ourselves (62%). More than two thirds of the lambikken were two-year and three-year lambikken, rendering the weighted average age of the blend upon bottling to moren than 24 months. All cereals used with the 3 Fonteinen brews were sourced in our own Cereal Collective."

Season 2019-2020, Assemblage #41. Bottled on 13/02/20. "The one that knows it all, still has to be born” as Armand would say. From time to time, we still get surprised by some of the results after blending lambics. Like this Golden Doesjel. While it was intended to be a Golden Blend, and despite the use of very potent jyoung lambic, the fermentation in the bottle did not continue. And it remained flat. This blend was made with lambics from three barrels, originating from three brews with three different brewers (of which 50% 3 Fonteinen brewed lambic). A nice gentle sipper."

Season 2019-2020, Assemblage #77. Bottled on 23/09/20."This specific Oude Kriek Intens Rood has macerated for almost 10 months on five different lambics from two barrels. Another four different lambics from another two barrels were used in the blending process. The final fruit intensity was about 442 grams of sour cherries per litre of Intens Rood.
100% 3 Fonteinen."

Season 2021-2022. Assemblage n°57. Bottled on 31/03/2022. "For this Oude Geuze Platinum Blend, we blended lambikken originating from four different barrels and nine different brews. We used one- two- and four-year old lambikken, in a 27/30/43 proportion and finished the blend with some freshly brewed wort. This way, the weighted average age of this bottle, upon bottling, clocks at to more than 30 months. Add to that at least a full year of bottle conditioning, and it will have reached a weighted age of more than 42 months. Almost 40% of the blend consists of lambikken brewed with grains form our own Cereal Collective."

Season 2021-2022 Assemblage #125. Bottled on 06/10/2022 "For this Oude Geuze, we blended six different lambikken originating from five different barrels. The lambikken used were one-, two-, three- and four-year old. This renders the weighted average age up to more than twenty-six months. Lambikken were brewed by ourselves, as well as De Troch and Lindemans."

Season 2021-2022 Assemblage #75. Bottled on 24/05/2022 "This particular blend of Oude Geuze consists of nine different brews originating from nine different barrels. More than 80% of the blend consists of lambikken brewed by ourselves. More than 60% of the blend consist of lambikken of two, three and four years old, bringing the weighted average age to more than 28 months. Half of the combined grain bill was composed of cereals that we sourced from our Cereal Collective in and around Pajottenland."

Season 2021-2022 Assemblage #64. Bottled on 03/05/2022 "For this particular blend of Oude Geuze, we blended lambikken originating from six different barrels and ten different brews, brewed by three different brewers. We put a large part of lambikken of at least 24 months old (44%) and of at least 36 months old (36%). This way, the weighted average age of this blend upon bottling is more than 29 months. Of the lambikken brewed by 3 Fonteinen, more than half of the cereals used was sourced from our own Cereal Collective in and around Pajottenland."

Season 2020-2021 Assemblage #43. Bottled on 20/04/2021. "In the spring of 2020, we bottled a Golden Blend (season 19|20 No. 40), containing lambikken from four different barrels and six different brews with three different breweries. Fifteen months of cellar conditioning and ageing later, this geuze blend appeared not to have carbonated. A part of the bottles was therefore opened again and was re-blended with both two potent jonge lambikken and 50-month oude lambikken - all 3 Fonteinen - to give the Golden Blend a second push to bottle carbonation and additional depth. This way, the weighted average age of this blend currently is at more than 36 months, with the oude lambik being brewed at the beginning of 2016."

Assemblage #118. Bottled on 17/10/2019. This specific Intens Rood has macerated for almost 6 months on an oak barrel.

Season 2021-2022 Assemblage #94. Bottled on 26/07/2022 "For this Oude Geuze, we selected lambikken from four ex-sherry barrels - three Oloroso and one Palo Cortado - with highly peated characteristics, and blanded these with a more mellow lambic to balance it all out. Consequently, we used lambikken from five different brews and six different barrels, spread over young, quite a lot of three-year old and four-year old lambikken. This way, the weighted average age is more than 35 months."

Season 2020-2021, Assemblage #78. Bottled on 21/09/2021."This Intens Rood underwent a maceration period for over four months on two year-old lambikken.

We macerated sour cherries for more than 11 months on one- and two-year old lambik, before blending with some more two-year old lambik. Lambikken originate from three different barrels and six different brews. All of the grains were sourced in our own Cereal Collective, and half of the hops come off Belgian fields.

Season 2019-2020 Assemblage #46. Bottled on 20/02/2020. "This Oude Kriek is typified by a long maceration of six and a half months on oak barrels. While most of the sour cherries were macerated on toasted oak, we decided to blend these to an Oude Kriek rather than a Robijn as we deemed the toast characteristics are more subtle. We used five different lambikken from seven different brews. We let this Oude Kriek, with a 32% fruit intensity, settle for well over a year before releasing it. This way, the weighted average age of this bottle is well over 30 months when released."

Season 2020-2021, Assemblage #15. Bottled 13/01/21."This is not “any” Oude Kriek, this is Zéér Oude Kriekenlambik. Instead of using one- and two-year old lambik for maceration and blending, this time we used 36% three-year old lambik (yes, like in more than thirty-six months) and 58% two-year old lambik.
The lambikken come from twelve different barrels and eleven different brews. This blend consists of 60% 3 Fonteinen lambik. The final fruit is at 340 grams of sour cherries per litre of this Oude Kriek."

Season 2021-2022. Assemblage #48. Bottled on 11/03/2022. "Nocturne is a spontaneously fermented full malt beer. Not your typical lambik beer, but our take on a Vlaams Oud Bruin. The beer was brewed with five different barley malts, from pilsner malt to dark roasted malts, and no wheat whatsoever. This batch was brewed in March 2018 with more dark chocolate malt, and put on barrels for four years before we blended it with a small portion of freshly brewed Nocturne.

"For this Frambozenlambik, we macerated raspberries from Ferme Framboos for four months on jonge lambik at a fruit intensity of 382 grams of raspberries per litre of lambik. Lighter in colour due to the applied maceration technique, the raspberry characteristics in aroma and taste of this Frambozenlambik present themselves while opening up. We let this Frambozenlambik rest for almost 18 months before releasing it. 100% 3 Fonteinen."

Season 2019-2020. Assemblage #25 bottled on 16/01/20. "This specific Cuvée Armand & Gaston has been blended with lambikken from seven different barrels and foeders and eight different brews.
