==Notes / Other History==
Girardin Black is a blend of twelve-, eighteen-, and twenty-four-month-old lambic. According to Paul Girardin, he "blend[s] lambics of 12, 18, and 24 months to make thegueuze. The 2-year-old lambic is for complexity, light acidity and maturity; the year-old version is to spark a refermentation, and the 18-month-old lambic is used to balance the 1- and 2 year-old versions."<ref name=ASNGirardin)>Chuck Cook, Exclusive, Self-Sufficient, Independent - Girardin Survives, Ale Street News, 2009, https://web.archive.org/web/20110603123342/http://www.alestreetnews.com/travel/321-exclusive-self-sufficient-independent-girardin-survives.html</ref>
