Gueuze 1882 (White label)
Description
Gueuze 1882 (White label) is a tank fermented,[1] filtered, and pasteurized gueuze brewed and blended on-site. Its counterpart, Girardin Gueuze 1882 (Black label), is unfiltered and unpasteurized. It is labeled as 5% ABV and is bottled in both 375 mL and 750 mL bottles.
Notes / Other History
Though there is no complete bottle log, Girardin White, as it is colloquially referred to, dates back to at least the 1990s. The bottles are not dated; however, beginning in the mid 2000s the corks began to show bottling years. Girardin White is available around the world, but it is only available in 375 mL bottles in the United States. Both 375 mL and 750 mL bottles can be ordered from various Belgian webshops.
