    This beer was actually released last year, but figured I would post just to get some English web presence for it. I also managed to get a hold of a couple bottles, in case anyone wants to trade for it... :stuck_out_tongue:

    A small amount of bottles were made for sale to craft beer bars and retailers, mostly in Beijing and Shanghai. It's extravagantly pricey however, at 600 RMB retail (about $90 USD) for a wood-boxed version with branded glasses. I managed to get just the bottles alone for 300 RMB each (about $45 USD). The beer is just a plain saison, but I figured maybe some people just can't resist the rare tick...?:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::rofl:

    I have made an entry for the beer here:

    (Brewery name has since changed from Brasserie d'Ecaussines to Brasserie Scassenes. Product description and photo have been submitted, awaiting admin approval.)
