In 1994, Kulminator had this listed on their menu as "Der Zeven Naties (Cantillon Druivenbier)" which appears to be a typo. We cannot find any other references to the Seven Nations. The price for this beer was listed as 370 Belgian Francs, or slightly under $11.00 USD for a 75cl in June of 1994.<ref name= DruivenMenu>Lambic Digest, June 8, 1994, http://192.185.42.233/lambic_digest/1994/364.txt</ref> | |||
