    Didn't see a thread yet for the event and figured I'd start the conversation since we are A WEEK AWAY!!!

    Open Beer Days: Grand Opening 1st of September 2017 at 8PM.
    Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 10AM to 5PM. During the Open Beer Days, a selection of (lambic) beers is available - the cellar beers are not available at that moment (www.3fonteinen.be/menu), but they are available on Wednesday 30th and Thursday 31st of August and the 1st of September from 10AM to 5PM, when the lambik-O-droom is open as always.

    New format this year with opening on Sept 1st @ 8PM. Sounds like the full vintage cellar will be available during normal business hours that day tho.

    Who is going? What day(s) you heading there? And when do we find out more info on to-go bottles? :stuck_out_tongue::sunglasses::grin:

    Yea! Last year was a blast. Wish I could have hung out with you for more of your adventures. We'll have to figure something out this year. I'm in town the 1st - 5th.

    I can't make it there sadly... a friend will try to make the trip for me and get me one bottle of Zenne, but won't be there before 3 or 4PM tomorrow (saturday), not sure it will still be available then.

    Do they ever sell magnums other then Open days? I'm going to be in BE end of october and it looks like those magnums were bottled two days after my daughters birthday. Hoping to locate a bottle or two to lay down for the long haul.

    Thanks for the bottle list. That sounds interesting. The Zenne b2 - is it the "regular" Zenne or is it the Zenne y Frontera Solera?

    Zenne solera, homage, frambozenlambik, A&G, lambik and the regulars plus some weird lambic cocktails from what I remember. Couldn't really get past the zenne! :-)
