== Description ==
Gueuze 1882 (Black label) is a gueuze brewed and blended on-site by Girardin. Unlike [[Gueuze_1882_(White_label)|Girardin Gueuze 1882 (White label)]], it is unfiltered and unpasteurized. It is labeled as 5% ABV and is bottled in both 37,5cl 375ml and 75cl 750ml bottles.
==Notes / Other History==
Though there is no complete bottle log for this gueuze, Girardin Black, as it is colloquially referred to, dates back to at least the 1990's. The bottles are not dated; however, beginning in the mid 2000's the corks began to show bottling batch numbers. For example ''Ax2013'' is commonly referred to as a 2013 batch. However, bottling batch numbers should only be used as a reference and may not necessarily indicate the bottling year as certain batches have arrived on store shelves prior to the year marked (''e.g.'', ''Ax2013'' arrived on store shelves in the United States in late-2012).
Girardin Black is available around the world, but it is only available in 37,5cl bottles in the United States. Both 75cl 750ml and 37,5cl 375ml bottles can be ordered from various Belgian webshops.
