Message callmemickey beers 4561 º places 47 º 14:31 Wed 8/15/2012 Originally posted by Countbeer hope someone close to him will continue Girardin. I assume his brother Paul will keep things going.
Message Gazza beers 727 º places 167 º 14:38 Wed 8/15/2012 If I could pay a tribute, maybe it’s that Black Label is one of the best beers I’ve ever tried, in my top 10 of all-time. One of THE definitive lambic beers and a true classic... RIP.

Message MagicDave6 P beers 1 º places 1 º 14:47 Wed 8/15/2012 Really sad news, Black Label has been my favourate beer for a few years now and with Tilquin opening and showcasing it so well also, its sad times. A Black Label is in the fridge and i’ll be on it tonight
