Rhubarb has been so ubiquitous for so long in the low countries that you would forget it originates from the Asian steppes. Delicious in a scrumptious pie or compote, we think it pairs nicely with our lambic. The sweet and sour of the red stems, grown organically by ourselves, are chopped up unevenly and added as such to the lambic of at least one year old. Together they ferment on casks for about four more months, resulting in a sweet sour beer containing roughly 300 grams of rhubarb per liter of beer. A lovely trip down memory lane having rhubarb pie with grandma, straight in your glass.

The Kestamont family purchased the old Goosens brewery in 2016 & set to bringing this old Lambic producing site back to life.
After three years, the first batch of lambic is put into wooden casks to start aging. A new brewing hall was installed early 2021 to start brewing again after almost half a century of absence. Finally, it is once more possible to smell the aroma of lambic through the streets of Pede. A return of a centuries old tradition to the quaint town where Brueghel used to paint the old watermill and little chapel some 400 years ago.
