The first batch of Oude Geuze Golden Blend was released in 37,5cl 375ml 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.
There were at least two other attempts to release a similar blend in 2012 and 2013 between the first and second release, but these blends did not carbonate and were released as [[3_Fonteinen_Golden_Doesjel|Golden Doesjel]].
