They re-did the label this year: http://www.hetanker.be/en/beers/gouden-carolus-cuvee-van-de-keizer.html Older label example: http://www.beerlabels.com/labels/labels.pl/3308/gouden-carolus-grand-cru-of-the-emperor-2003.html And the EU the label is "D'Or - Cuvée Van De Keizer": http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/1534/6947 All the same beer, brewed once a year, on February 24th; and an awesome beer at that.. Thanks Peter for posting about the class! Cheers, -Nathan Smith Hey Mario,
