The first batch of Oude Geuze Golden Blend was released in 375ml 37,5cl bottles in early 2012 after being bottled in early 2011. It was released with two labels, one for the U.S import approved on February 24, 2012<ref name=TTBGB> TTB Label Approval, [https://www.ttbonline.gov/colasonline/viewColaDetails.do?action=publicFormDisplay&ttbid=12047001000093 3 Fonteinen Oude Geuze Golden Blend], 2012</ref> and one for the rest of the world. Part of the Armand-brewed lambic remaining after the thermostat incident was used for the four year old component of this blend. The second batch of Oude Geuze Golden Blend was released in the summer of 2015 after having been bottled in March of 2014. The second batch consists of the same 1, 2, 3, and 4 year blend as the previous batch. Initial descriptions via online retailers noted a 5-year old lambic in the blend; however, the oldest lambic used in the second batch was four "brewing seasons" old and thus somewhere between four and five years old at the time of blending and bottling.
