Season 18/19 Assemblage #9. Bottled on 28/11/18. This particular Hommage has macerated a bit more than 6 months.The maceration ratio is 72% raspberries and 28% cherries.

"This beer was obtained by fermenting 240 gr of fresh rhubarb per litre of lambic. The rhubarb has been produced locally by the Ferme de la Bosse Jauque."

"This blend begins with lambic matured for eighteen months in an ex-Mandorla barrel. Mandorla is an Italian almond liqueur whose barrel imparts subtle notes reminiscent of frangipane.
As the barrel-aged lambic developed an intense character, we chose to balance it with a young plum lambic. The latter was produced using three-month-old lambic and macerated on plums for more than five months before blending.
The result is a beer that balances rich almond notes with vibrant stone fruit character."

"For this edition of Synergy, we explored the combination of quince and rhubarb.
Rather than pressing the quinces into cider, we processed them into fruit pulp before blending them with two-year-old lambic, where they macerated for approximately six months.
The rhubarb component was prepared similarly, using one-year-old lambic and four months of maceration.
After blending both fruit lambics, the beer matured for several additional months in former red wine barrels before bottling."
