The company has been brewing beer since 1876, today including Barbãr, a blond honey beer of 8%, and the strong blond Hopus. The Floreffe abbey beers also come from this brewery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--verhaal--\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA brewery by the quarries\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrasserie Lefebvre was founded in 1876 in Quenast, according to Wikipedia by Jules Lefebvre. The location was chosen strategically: the brewery was to supply the cafés around the quarries in the region with beer. Quenast lies in the municipality of Rebecq, in Wallonia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brewery itself speaks of six generations and calls itself a source of celebrations. It stresses its local roots and independence, and knowledge that has been passed down from generation to generation. The slogan on the website reads, loosely translated: a beer to celebrate every occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBarbãr, Hopus and the rest of the range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best-known beer is Barbãr, a blond beer with Belgian honey and 8% alcohol. Wikipedia describes it as a strong pale ale with honey. Lefebvre also brews Hopus, a strong blond beer that reaches 8.3% according to Wikipedia, and Blanche de Bruxelles Rosée, a light witbier (Belgian white beer) with red fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder the unplugged label you'll find Ana Hop, a hopped beer that is (nearly) alcohol-free, and Dikkenek Citra Hop, a dry-hopped beer with a Belgo-Belgian slant. The Floreffe abbey beers also belong to the house: Lefebvre has taken care of their production since 1983. That range consists of Blonde, Double, Floreffe Triple and Prima Melior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLefebvre at Hoptimaal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Hoptimaal we have stocked Brasserie Lefebvre Barbãr, in 33 cl and with 8% alcohol. On Untappd it is the highest-rated beer within our Lefebvre range. What is available right now, you can see on the brewery page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink Barbãr cool but not ice-cold, so the aromas have room to come out. It is a strong beer, so pour it into a tulip glass or stemmed glass and take your time with it. If you're looking for a hoppier side of Lefebvre, Hopus and Dikkenek Citra Hop are the beers to look out for. Hoppy beers are best drunk as fresh as possible and well chilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--faq--\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere does Lefebvre come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLefebvre is a Belgian brewery from Quenast, a sub-municipality of Rebecq in Wallonia.
