Westvleteren to be labelled

[wheresthepath]

I’m quite sad about this. Nice labels, but somehow it makes the beers a little less special:

Labels return to Trappist Westvleteren bottles today - Beer Today

Nobody needs those labels. They should stick to the plane bottles!

I dig it.

I’m not against this. If it makes things easier for them for whatever, that’s cool.

I remember when the old “gray market” bottles that you could buy in the US circa late 90s to early 00s had labels. I think I still have an empty of that somewhere - I wonder if its worth anything?

[minutemat]

Not sure what the point is, being as the label is exactly the same as the bottle cap with no extra information. But if they had to have a label, this is fine.

This may be EU requirement, I remember there was some talk about it a couple of years ago…

Time for Bexit or Bruxit.

I have a St Sixtus Abdy Westvelteren Abt 12 bottle from about 1984 that I drank years ago. I think Ratman has the second empty in his collection!
