[edit] Unsourced statments

The following statements were unsourced for a long time:

Because of the name, it was originally banned from being imported into the U.S.[citation needed] It was imported under the name Mateen Triple to get around the ban.

No sources were found for 5+ months, so the claim was moved here. Ufwuct 22:54, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Note: This information can be found on the Brewery's Website (though the quote apparently comes from the Michael Jackson book 'Great Beers of Belgium'. The website doesn't say the name was actually banned in the US - it sounds more as if it was changed for marketing reasons. To quote the website (quoting Jackson):

"The flippant name was deemed unacceptable in the U.S., where the beer was dubbed Mateen, after an early flemishbrewer in America." ([1])


IsnĀ“t the alcohol 9%?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:DeliriumTremens.jpg

Image:DeliriumTremens.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
