Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen | lambik-O-droom

This was amazing! Highly recommed the tour, our guy that did it was great. Here is what we shared with some other travelers: - oude golden blend 2014 - kriek 2015 (tastes like cherry pie) - doesjel 2009 - summer season (very refreshing) - autumn season (bold great taste) - honing vintage 2015 - zenne 24/25 -season 23/24 blend no 2 - vintage 2015

I recently visited Three Fontaine brewery with my university , and it was such a fantastic experience! The brewery prides itself on using local, natural ingredients, and all of their beers are made right here in Belgium. The taste was absolutely amazing; every beer we tried was full of character and flavor, and knowing that no additives are used made it even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with a bar where you can grab a drink anytime and enjoy the beautiful, authentic setting. The tour was informative and engaging, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. If you’re a beer enthusiast or just looking for a great place to relax and enjoy a drink, this is definitely the spot to visit!

If you like lambic beers this is the place for you. Extremely friendly service and amazing beers. Cannot recommend enough!

Excellent location. The beer is lovely, food was good. We also got the tour at 1400 which was very well presented.

Great and cosy place with a great aura. Helpful and nice employees. When visiting Brussels a must go to. Lambic lovers heaven.

Without a doubt one of the top lambic and gueuze destinations in Brussels. Every moment here is a quality experience, from the vibe of the taproom to the amazing staff to the great (free) tour! You really can't beat it in all of Belgium if you're a beer nerd. A bit of an industrial building in a random neighborhood in Lot, a section of Beersel which itself seems to be a suburb of Brussels. Very inviting space with natural materials and plenty of great free smells. Friendly, knowledgeable staff at the bar and in the store who are clearly involved in the entire process and experience. From the lambic on cask to the vast bottle selection, you really can't visit at the wrong time. Bottles range from their classics to some of the rarer, special blends. A place like this brings camaraderie and energy that is tough to find elsewhere, so people bond over the beer and are inclined to share special bottles and experiences that you know you can't find in many places. After a while and if enough people are in the taproom, an amazing tour will materialize so bring your glass and enjoy the barrel room. Once you learn the process and story and history, you're inclined to enjoy more tasty beers in the taproom. The facility overall is so clean and well-designed. It's like a shrine to wild and sour and fruited Belgian beer. Don't forget to hit the store on the way out for some great bottles to-go but also some tasty jam made with lambic, some glassware, and other great merch. This is an easy trip on the S2 train from Midi/Zuid so if you're in Brussels, do not hesitate!

Best Brewery In The World. We have been lucky to be guided by Thijs, a passionate lover of Lambic and knowledgeable tour guide you are likely to encounter. It was a great tour not only for the beer professionals but also for the non-beer people who care about what they eat and drink. It resonates with people who likes “local ingredients, its specific microclimate and the ancient beer styles. For the sake of efficiency in this 21st world, we lost many of our values(intentionally and reluctantly). This brewery reminded me of the tradition and sophistication of heritage.

Amazing place for Belgian/lambic beer enthusiast. An absolute must-visit while in Belgium. Staff is great and beer selection is phenomenal (in terms of spontaneous fermentation beer of course). I can only dream of one day living closer!

This is like going to Lambic beer nirvana. It's the barrel house and tasting room for the 3 Fonteinen brewery which makes some of the best sour beers in the world. The only problem is that because they bottle everything and mostly in 750 ml bottles, you either have to come with a bunch of friends, make a bunch of friends, be willing to pour out a terrifying amount of fantastic beer or only try a few things. There's a free tour of the barrel aging rooms most days if you ask. The Sunday I was there they opened at 1p and did the first tour at 2p, but the English tour wound up at 2:30p, which was all fine with me. I sat there and drank the fresh (flat) lambic, which was yummy but not as good as I'm used from 3F. I then moved onto the bottles where they have both recent and vintage/rare bottles to try. I had a few small bottles and fresh lambics on tap to myself and then met two other Americans and we shared 3-4 rare/vintage 750 ml bottles between us, which were amazing. My favorite was the Schaerbeek cherry kriek that was 10 years old. If you're in Brussels and like sour beers at all, I highly recommend the 20-minute train ride out on the S2 to come here. Just note the train only runs once an hour and there's a 7-minute walk once you're done.

Coming here was such a delight! The free brewery tour was so fun and super interesting! The beers were fantastic we bought 3 to take home! Great service and ambiance away from things and a fun friends and family atmosphere!

The primary brewery and tasting room near the Lot train station. Note this is 3km away from the cafe. But definitely come here as this was the highlight of our Belgium trip! It was the best brewery tour I have ever been on. It is led by the owner, Armand, who has been there 37 years and is so passionate about the brewery, it's beer, and the history. Hopefully you like sour beer since the lambic here is best in the world. The tour was on Saturday at 10:30am and lasted almost two hours and included two tastings. Then Armand sat down with us after, and we ordered bottles of beer to drink, which were all amazing and ones you can only get there. Catch the S2 train from the city, hop off on Lot station, come here. Not much food but some snacks available if need be. Make friends and split bottles. Could not recommend this place enough! It should be on every beer nerd's bucket list!

Went here for the beer-focused part of my EU honeymoon. If you like lambic, you simply have to go here. Gorgeous place not far from downtown Brussels, huge tap list that isn't even 100% beer, and super nice staff that are used to lambic tourists. It was very hot the day I went but on days where it's not a heat wave, the outdoor seating is perfect for cold lambic.

This is primarily a lambic/gueuze tasting room. There are some snack options like gueuze cheese and bread, but mostly this is the place to go to try all kinds of the best blends of lambics that the good folks at 3 Fonteinen are blending together. If you are a sour/funky beer fanatic, this is a gem. Great prices on all their regular krieks and gueuzes as well as fresh lambic on "tap," all for amazing prices. If you want something special, they have an extensive list of rare aged bottles from previous years. Extremely helpful and cheerful service too. We ran into a few people we'd seen previously at Cantillon and all kindly shared a number of rounds of different types of special bottles together. That said, there was nearly nobody there at the time that we went (weekday in Jan), so this place is indeed far from the madding crowds of other places. They don't offer tours normally on Wednesdays, but may make an exception if there are sufficient numbers of people. It's worth taking a tour if you can--it's neat to take a peek at the unique kinds of barrels that they have and what they're mixing up next. Very easily accessible by Brussels on the local S2 train line (6 euros round trip per person from Gare Midi)--just take the train to the Lot stop (there's also a bus stop from Brussels too here) and then walk about 5 minutes.

By far our favorite stop along our trip. It was better than we could have imagined. One of the best breweries for Lambiks that you could ever visit. They have a great cheese platter, the small is enough. We recommend sitting with other people and trying to split the different bottles. This will allow you to try many more than you might normally.

What a great spot. This is the new location over in Lot. The new lambik-o-droom is beautifully laid out, with windows to view into the barrel room, the tables are salvaged barrel tops, and the lights are old beer bottles. Great touches. And of course, the lambics themselves are unbelievable. Always a few nice vintages available for on-premise, and usually a lot of beer available for take-away. Bring a buddy or two with you so you can split a few 750 mL bottles. Otherwise, there are always people there that are willing to share. Can't wait to revisit these guys.

The staff are extremely friendly and attentive. The tour is very well run, and you could spend a whole day here. A must visit when in Belgium!!
