Or almost every single other variant of this beer, for example:

the point being YOU CANNOT IDENTIFY WITHOUT THE NECK TAG.

It’s actually none of those though, because it doesn’t have the dotted red line.

Just rate every BFM barrel aged version just to be sure, one bottle, so many ticks.

What will you do now that you can’t identify it? Throw it out, I assume?

Extra in a trade and it’s someone’s else problem.

I stand corrected.

So...

we have at least narrowed it down:

The Rhum Barrel from 2010 still had the dotted red line: http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/bfm-abbaye-de-saint-bon-chien-grand-cru-2010--rhum-barrels/140211/

The Rosé of 2011-2012 already has the same label as you do, and so does Megamix Vol 2, French Sparkling Wine and the two recent Vin Jaunes which are aliased.

All the other 2011/2012 beers have not been bottled as far as I recall and were served from kegs, but I could be wrong.

And the very latest one (Lasciantemi) is pretty damn new, unless you got it from Switzerland I wouldn’t think it’s that one.
