Nocturne is a always blend of 3 Fonteinen brewed dark full malt beers with traditional lambic. It is spontaneously fermented and matured in oak barrels, before seeing extended bottle ageing. It is unfiltered and unpasteurised.
The 3 Fonteinen Nocturne (light) is not your typical lambik beer, but their take on a Vlaams Oud Bruin. The beer was brewed with five different barley malts, from pilsner malt to dark roasted malts, and with no wheat whatsoever.
This batch was brewed in April 2019 with more lighter malt, and put on oak barrels for three years before we blended it with a small portion of freshly brewed Nocturne. The weighted average age of this beer upon bottling is 33 months.
