History / Other Notes
Oude Quetsche Tilquin à L'Ancienne was first released in February of 2012. It comes with a best-by date in dd/mm/yyyy format as well as a neck label with the vintage season. The first round of bottles were released with a 2011-2012 neck label and subsequent batches have followed a similar pattern. It can be deduced that the date on the reverse label is designed to be read as a bottling date as well. The first batch, which was only available at the brewery in limited quantities has a best by date on 23/02/2022 and a neck label of 2011-2012. This would mean that it was bottled on February 23, 2012. Oude Quetsche Tilquin à L'Ancienne is released annually in 375ml and 750ml bottles
