It is a classic gueuze bottled in 1989 and using a different label at the request of a comic book publisher called Editions du Lombard. To the best of Jean-Pierre Van Roy's memory, it was labeled especially for the launch of the comic book "Rick Hochet contre Sherlock" ("Ric Hochet against Sherlock", volume #44 of the Ric Hochet series) which story happened to take place at the brewery, and was served at the publishing house during release.
