Changes

The first release of fruited lambic in 2021 represented some of the shortest chain lambic available with all of the brewing ingredients and fruit coming directly from Pajottenland soil, and sold solely at the blendery. The ambition is to work as organically as possible. The Easter weekend is traditionally the start of the blendery’s commercial season, and thus the release of new beers batches. The variety of the beer line-up may vary each year, depending on the fruit harvest’s quality. Het Boerenerf released its first traditional ‘oude gueuze’ in 2022, and named it ‘Gueuze Erfgoed’. It was available in 750ml and magnum (1500ml) bottles. The blender pays an approriate appropriate tribute to his ancestors of the [[Eylenbosch_(Huizingen)|Eylenbosch (Huizingen)]] family, because of the gueuze’s name (‘Erfgoed’ means ‘Heritage’in Flemish) and the retro black colored label artwork, which resembles to the 1960s label. The second gueuze batch was released shortly thereafter in 2022, albeit in 375ml bottles. The green colored label of the second batch will be the distinctive color of the blendery’s future gueuze blends.

Lambic, cider , and mead are the main pillars of Het Boerenerf, because they represent the blendery’s DNA. These three ferments allow the blender to creatively produce a higher variety of limited batches. ‘Symbiose’ is one of those creative limited batches. It is a unique blend of lambic, cider and mead, since this combination was never before commercially released by a lambic producer.
