For this plum lambik, we macerated stoned Reine Claude D’Oullins plums for seven months on an oak barrel. The final fruit intensity is 526 grams of plums per litre of finished plum lambik. These plums come from Wijndomein Hoenshof in the pretty village of Hoepertingen in the beautiful province of Limburg, Belgium.

Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen “Speling van het Lot” (Twist of Fate) is a series of small batch experimental brews, barrel maturations, fruit macerations and blends.

This 11th version features a range of plum(-like) fruit macerations. About 60 years ago, there were more than 200 ancient plum varieties in and around Belgium, now almost extinct. The ambition is to track down and experiment with such old local varieties and have them grown again with local farmers and enthusiasts. Show Less
