Description
Cantillon Nath is a two year old lambic with rhubarb added. It is bottled in 75cl bottles and also available in 20 liter kegs and is listed as 5.5% ABV on the bottle label and 5.0% on the keg label.
History / Other Notes
The history of Cantillon's experimentation with rhubarb dates to the release of Zwanze 2008. Four years later, the brewery released another rhubarb lambic for Zwanze 2012. In the years between 2012 and 2017, at least two other batches of "Lambic Rhubarbe" were bottled and kegged, usually being sold and labeled as Zwanze 2012, or simply Z12. These rhubarb lambics happened to be Jean's wife Nathalie's favorite lambics, and he had previously stated that he intended to make the rhubarb lambic a semi-regular seasonal beer.
In the summer of 2017 the brewery received several shipments of freshly cut rhubarb. For the first time since Zwanze 2012, the rhubarb lambic received an official name: Nath, named after his wife. Nathatlie is also a kindergarten teacher, and the label was drawn by children from her classroom as a surprise. Going forward, the hope is to have the students design the label each year.
