About this deal

Lindemans Brewery (Brouwerij Lindemans) is a Belgian family brewery based in Vlezenbeek, a small town in Flemish Brabant, southwestern Brussels. It produces lambics, a style of Belgian ale that uses raw wheat and wild yeast. We've already told you that our family never does anything the way other people do. Lindemans Kriek is a good example of that. The brewery, to this day, is still a family company, run by brothers Nestor and Rene for a long time, [3] before their sons, Dirk and Geert, took over the business, each having a 50% interest in the company. [1] Lindemans Brewery in Vlezenbeek Production [ edit ] F: silky; punchy with its funky tartness... every nook of the palate feels coated with a thin, gummy film... the carbonation seems a bit weak, and over its course, the body gradually becomes more viscous, rounded, and syrupy, but short of laborious We've already told you that our family never does anything the way other people do. Kriek Lindemans is a good example of that.

We said it before, our family does everything differently! De Kriek Lindemans is a good example of this. S: not like cherry pie, more like cherry cough drop, with a vaguely medicinal lozenge overtone... like their other fruit-flavored brands, excellent intensity if a touch blaringly muddy in expression... little sense of funk, even less if any malt/wheat character

Lindemans brews its lambic according to the method of spontaneous fermentation. This lambic is then used as the base for all of the fruit beers. In 25 years, the production grew from 5.000 to 50.000 hectoliters. Over that span, the brewery expanded multiple times. In 1991 a new brewhouse was built next to the old one to increase capacity. In 2013 works for a new expansion, with a new bottling plant, started. Today, the brewery brews 85.000 hectoliters per year. 60.000 hectoliters of this amount is lambic, the base to which fruit juices are added. Each year 6.000 hectoliters of Lindemans Faro are produced, representing 7,5% of the entire production. T: cherry pie filling up front with a blast of tart, tangy acidity in the finish, which continues to tingle in the aftertaste while a subtly sweetish cherry cordial smatters the palate floor... moreish, but nearly too candy-like

Even more important to Krieks than color, though, is authenticity in flavor. “The style hinges on the quality of the fruit,” Priest contends. “The quality of the underlying beer is important and needs to be complementary, but if it’s even a bit boring that can be a perfectly serviceable canvas for exemplary fruit. I reject any beer hoping to approximate the character with syrups or flavorings or extracts. You can’t fake cherry character… you need real cherries.” 8 of the Best Cherry Beers Kriek Because we immediately filter and pasteurize the beer, this Kriek tastes slightly sweeter and fruitier than the Oude Kriek Cuvée René with its refermentation in the bottle. Thanks to its innovative taste, this cherry became very popular both with us and abroad. Today, this is undoubtedly the cherry consumers consider as a reference. The history of Lindemans Brewery began in 1822 when the brewery was founded on a small farm in Vlezenbeek. The brewery's patriarch was Frans Lindemans, the brother of the then- bailiff of Gaasbeek. [2] In 1930, due to the growing success of the brewery, the agricultural activity was stopped definitively to focus on the brewing of Kriek and Gueuze. They produced their first Faro in 1978. Shortly after, in 1980 the brewery started its production of Framboise. Consequently, in 1986 and 1987, Lindemans added Cassis and Pêcheresse to its assortment. Finally, in 2005, Apple was the last beer to be introduced. Our meeting with American importer Charles Finkel in the 1970s revolutionised the fruit beer segment. Charles convinced us to export our old kriek to the United States by boat. What we had not thought of is that the movement of the waves would reactivate the fermentation process and cause the corks to pop during the trip. It was like something out of The Adventures of Tintin. To prevent that from happening, we therefore developed an alternative production method for our kriek. We use fresh, not from concentrate, unsweetened cherry filtrate which we blend with lambic that is at least one year old before fermenting & macerating for up to 3 days and pasteurising the whole batch.So the corks don't pop.L: clear, ruby-colored liquid with a vibrant glow; pink swath of messy foam which settles into a gloriously craggy collar Like the Oude Kriek Cuvée René, this filtered Kriek Lindemans is made on the basis of lambic. The difference, however, lies in the addition of 25% filtrate from freshly squeezed cherries, after which the beer is filtered and pasteurized. I don’t know that there is such thing as an American Kriek,” shared The Referend Bier Blendery’s founder James Priest. “The serious practitioners are all blessedly making the best beer they can with the best fresh, local fruit they can, rather than forcing stylistic uniformity.” Perhaps it’s more accurate to refer to American attempts at the style as simply spontaneous cherry beers (as one of our examples does) so they don’t carry the weight and history of the Kriek style, which is specifically Belgian.

Our meeting with the American beer importer and connoisseur Charles Finkel in the 1970s has turned the market segment of fruit beers upside down. Charles convinced us to export our Oude Kriek to the United States by boat. What we hadn’t thought about was that the swell of the waves would reactivate the fermentation causing the bottles to explode and the corks to pop out during the trip. A real scene from Tintin… To avoid that, we have developed an alternative production method for our kriek. We use a non-concentrated, unsweetened filtrate from freshly squeezed cherries that we macerate with lambic of at least one year before pasteurising everything.Because of the limited availability of sour cherries from Schaerbeek, the traditional ingredient for Kriek, Lindemans Kriek is made using unsweetened cherry juice which is added to a mixture of lambics of different ages. The resulting beer is described as less sour and more fruity. It contains 2.5% ABV. Kriek, eller kirsebærøl, er lavet ved at tilføje kirsebær, kirsebærsaft eller en kombination af både til lambic øl, den typiske øl i byen Bruxelles og regionen til sydvest. Lindemans Kriek er en af ??Belgiens mest kendte kirsebærøl og har vundet adskillige priser, blandt andet på World Beer Cup. Lindemans Faro is a lambic beer. The first Lindemans Faro was brewed in 1978, when the beverage was becoming popular again. At 4% ABV, it is considered a light beer. It is available in 250 ml, 375 ml and 750 ml bottles. We have been adding cherries to our lambic for generations to obtain a beer with exceptional qualities.
