Description

In 2020, five bottles were served at Cantillon's taproom displaying "Scarabée-Timorasso" on the label. This beer doesn't exist, and is most likely a mistake by an employee who misunderstood the content of the blend and wrongly labeled these bottles. Indeed, at the time Timorasso was made, Cantillon didn't have any Gewurztraminer at the brewery, making a blend with Scarabée impossible.[1]
