While Akkurat has confirmed that Oude Geuze 50/50 was not a unique blend make specifically for Akkurat, its origin as J&J Roze has not been confirmed as there is some confusion about the blend. Specifically, Akkurat's Oude Geuze 50/50 is labeled as a blend of three year old Boon and one year old Lindemans while J&J Rose is a blend of three year old Girardin with one year old Boon. Research is ongoing.

← 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]
