Very little is known about this beer.  It is briefly referenced on the two links provided below. Judging from the label, it is a lambic bottled in 1996 for the birth of Florian Van Roy and may be the same as [[Cantillon_Cuvée_de_Florian|Cantillon Cuvée de Florian]] which was served for a time at [[Akkurat]]. Though all of the bottles appearing at Akkurat were 75cl and had a yellow Cantillon label with a handrwritten year.  Research into this beer and label is ongoing.  
Florian Van Roy is a regular [[Cantillon Classic Gueuze 100% Lambic|Cantillon Gueuze]] blend bottled in 1996 for the birth of Florian Van Roy.  This beer is also called [[Cantillon Cuvée de Florian|Cuvée de Florian]] and more information can be found on that page.

==History / Other Notes==
This particular label was placed on 375 mL bottles only, that were given to family and friends in 1996 instead of the usual sugar-coated chocolate almonds traditionally gifted to close ones for such occasion. Other 750 mL bottles ([[Cantillon Cuvée de Florian|Cuvée de Florian]]) were aged for 5+ years in Cantillon's cellar and sold in the United States and Sweden.<ref name=Jean>Jean Van Roy, Communication with Lambic.Info, February 1, 2015</ref>
