2020 was a difficult year for everyone, also for the rhubarb . Given the very great drought, the rhubarb had simply not come out at my retired rhubarb grower. (Thats another story, but for the next release or so) The rhubarb that we used for this blend is partly grown on Zeeland soil and this also translates into the taste. A slight salinity is noticeable here. The final blend is an assembly of 3 different types of rhubarb.

Lci. Liquid rhubarb... Very dry... Perhaps too dry for the rhubarb taste to reach its full potential.

Small fine white head over clear golden beer. Intense lambic nose, horseblanket, lemon, lemonpeel, farmyard, floral. Champenoise white wine with mushrooms, peach, lemon and horseblanket. Out of this world! Demi-sec top sparkling wine with a lemon dash. Light body, acidthinning, light acidburn. Very good carbonation. Sam, this one is magic!

Pours unclear blonde. Taste is balanced, yet intense rhubarb. Acidity and funk in great balance. Some wood. Nice, easy drinker. Not super specific, just lovely.

MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: lots of rhubarb, nice acidity, fruity, peach, little bitter, hint of vanilla, good sour. Aftertaste: nice bitter touch, earthy, green, grassy, lots of fresh rhubarb. Very nice one!
