For this Kweepeer, we used Limburgse, hand-picked quinces and let them macerate for almost three months on lambikken originating from three different barrels and eight different brews. The majority of the lambikken used was more that two years old, which brings the weighted average age upon bottling to almost 27months. The final fruit intensity clocks in at 800 grams of quinces per litre of finished Kweepeer.

Founded in 1887, 3 Fonteinen originally specialised in the blending of Lambic acquired from other breweries to produce outstanding Gueuze and Kriek beer. In 1998, they expanded and began brewing their own, however they still use beer from breweries such as Boon and Girardin to this day, making their output a true representation of the Lambic culture.
