This directly contradicts statements to lambic.info staff from Stene, the owner of Akkurat, who reported that it was a unique blend made for their bar.  Further validation is required.

Description

Akkurat's Gold Geuze 50/50 is the same beer as Geuze Cuvée J&J Blauw. 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. It was named "Gold" because it had 4-year-old lambic in it, which was unheard of at the time.[1]

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