I purchased some years ago from a women whose daughter brought it back from brussels. Every year she had a sale, her daughter I guess traveled alot. Not sure if that is true, but I love it none the less! I had no idea what Mort Subit was at the time, I was young. I beleive I paid $12.00 because she needed to get rid of some things.

nice one, that's really a well known beer here in Belgium
Your in Belgium, very cool. So I have a question, how are the brand names at the bottom associated with MORT SUBITE? Sorry if that's an obviuos question.
"gueuze" and "kriek" are the kind of beer, gueuze is a lambic beer and the kriek is a beer made with cherries
framboise, cassis and peche are for the different tastes, raspberry, blackcurrant and peach
Very cool and much appreciated fifties50s! They sound very goood! Thank you very much!
