History / Other Notes
This gueuze was bottled on behalf of the owners of De Heeren van Liedekercke to mark the occasion of the birth of their daughter. Both 37,5cl and 75cl bottles were available for on-site consumption at the restaurant and 75cl bottles were also available for takeaway. Cantillon provided De Heeren van Liedekercke with unlabeled bottles; the label design and it's application was performed later.
Unsubstantiated Stories
Some have claimed that Jean Van Roy has said that he did not bottle the beer in 37,5cl bottles. This story seems to originate back to the same place and has not been validated.
