3 Fonteinen Akkurat Oude Geuze 50/50: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 15:29, 1 February 2025

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]

The label indicates that this is a blend of Boon and Lindemans lambic, however it is actually a blend of one year old Boon and three year old Girardin lambic, as stated on the Geuze Cuvée J&J Roze label.^[1]

 __NOTOC__
 == Description ==
-Similar to the [[3 Fonteinen Akkurat Gold Geuze 50/50|Akkurat's Gold Geuze 50/50]], this beer is reportedly a blend of two lambics 3-year old [[Brouwerij_Boon|Boon]] lambic and 1-year old [[Brouwerij_Lindemans|Lindemans]] lambic.
+Akkurat's Oude Geuze 50/50 is the same beer as [[3 Fonteinen Geuze Cuvée J&J (Jessie En Joost) Roze (Rose)|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. <ref name=Stene>Stene Isacsson, Communication with Lambic.Info, January 31, 2015</ref>
-== Unsubstantiated Stories ==
+Fewer than 50 of these bottles were sent to Akkurat and they are no longer available. <ref name=Stene>Stene Isacsson, Communication with Lambic.Info, January 31, 2015</ref>
-There are discussions on Ratebeer [http://www.ratebeer.com/forums/aliasing-3-fonteinen-akkurats-gold-geuze-50-50-to-jj-blauw_212780.htm {1}]<ref name=“Ratebeer”>[http://www.ratebeer.com http://www.Ratebeer.com], 2012</ref> indicating that Armand had extra, unlabeled bottles of [[3 Fonteinen Geuze Cuvée J&J (Jessie En Joost) Roze (Rose)|J&J Roze]] that he sent to [[Akkurat]].  Akkurat then asked if they could put their own label on it.
-This directly contradicts statements made to the [https://www.lambic.info Lambic.Info] staff from Stene, the owner of Akkurat, who reported that it was a unique blend made for their bar.
-Additionally, this now leads to confusion about the blend.  50/50 is reportedly three year old Boon and one year old Lindemans.  However, J&J Rose is 3-year old [[Brouwerij_Girardin|Girardin]] with 1-year old [[Brouwerij_Boon|Boon]].
-Further validation is required.
