This directly contradicts statements to lambic.info staff from Stene, the owner of Akkurat.  Stene that it was a unique blend made for their bar. 
 
  
Additionally, this now leads to confusion about the blend.  50/50 is reportedly 3 year old Boon and 1 year old Lindemans, yet J&J Rose is 3 year old Girardin with one year old Boon)

3 Fonteinen Akkurat Oude Geuze 50/50

← 3 Fonteinen

Description

Akkurat's Oude Geuze 50/50 is the same beer as Geuze Cuvée J&J Roze. When part of the batch was provided to Akkurat, a different label was created with Armand's knowledge because Joost and Jessie's wedding label did not make sense for this beer when sold in Sweden. [1]

Fewer than 50 of these bottles were sent to Akkurat and they are no longer available. [1]
