Rhubarb Lambic

Rhubarb Lambic — Lambic with Rhubarb and Verbena — Het Boerenerf

Rhubarb Lambic is the Lambic with rhubarb crafted by Het Boerenerf, an artisanal producer from Pajottenland (Belgium). A blend of young and old Lambics with maceration of three varieties of rhubarb grown at the Neerhof — the family organic farm where brother Joppe Eylenbosch manages the land and livestock — and infused with verbena from the garden. Fermented, aged, and bottled on the farm: a Lambic that tells the story of a place and a family.

The Neerhof: the family organic farm

The Neerhof is the Eylenbosch family’s organic farm in Pajottenland: a place where three varieties of rhubarb are grown, animals are raised, and Lambic is produced with the same care and respect for the land. Brother Joppe manages the land and livestock, while the brewery transforms the garden’s fruits into beer. An integrated agricultural and brewing project, rare and authentic.

Sensory profile

On the nose it is unusual and captivating: the rhubarb brings acidic and fresh vegetal notes, while the verbena adds a delicate herbal and floral touch. The base Lambic carries its wild complexity — funky, earthy, cellar-like — which blends with the rhubarb in an unexpected balance. On the palate it is acidic, fresh, and complex, with a long and persistent finish.
