LINDEMANS BREWERY

Lindemans’ journey began on a quaint Vlezenbeek farm named “Hof ter Kwade Wegen” (the farm of bad roads), a name that belies the magic within. Rather than a curse, the farm's naturally abundant microflora—teeming with wild yeasts—became the secret behind its funky, spontaneously fermented beers. Generation after generation has nurtured Lindemans into one of Belgium’s most revered breweries, with its iconic lambics celebrated for their unique, flavorful character and hailed by many as the best in the world.

let's tap into their story!

In 1822, the Lindemans story began at an old farm in Vlezenbeek called “Hof ter Kwade Wegen” – literally, “the farm of bad roads.” Despite its ominous name, the farm flourished, nurtured by the village’s exceptional microflora that would later become the secret behind Lindemans’ unique character.

Nature’s Gift: Wild Yeasts & Spontaneous Fermentation

Vlezenbeek’s air teemed with hundreds of strains of wild yeasts—including the famous Brettanomyces Bruxellensis and Brettanomyces Lambicus. This natural bounty allowed for spontaneous fermentation, a traditional method that has defined Lindemans’ distinctive lambic beers ever since.

A Family Affair: Brewing from Heart and Heritage

The brewery’s journey took a personal turn when Joos Frans Lindemans married Maria Anna Van Dorselaer, the daughter of the farm’s owners. While toiling the fields by day, Joos Frans began brewing lambic in the evenings. During harsh winters, local workers joined him, and in its first year, the humble setup produced 360 barrels—a modest start that would blossom into a brewing legacy.

Building the Legacy: Expansion & Resilience

In 1865, one of the Lindemans’ 11 children, Joos Frans Duke, assumed control of the family farm and, in 1869, built the farmhouse and brewhouse that still stand today. Initially focusing on lambic and faro, the brewery steadily evolved. By 1901, Duke’s youngest child, Theofiel, expanded operations and gradually shifted from agriculture to full-time brewing—even as production faced wartime challenges in 1930.

Innovation & Global Acclaim: Crafting Iconic Lambics

With the baton passed to the next generation, René and Nestor, and a brief stewardship by brewer Triphon Antoons, innovation took flight. In 1961, they created their first kriek, maturing it in oak barrels and capturing the essence of tradition. The 1970s marked the beginning of international exports to France, and by the 1980s, 70% of production was shipped abroad. Iconic lambics like the naturally fermented Kriek—made with fresh, whole cherries—and the dark, raspberry-infused Framboise soon garnered global acclaim.

A Living Tradition: Family-Run Excellence Today

Today, Lindemans Brewery remains proudly family-run, with cousins Dirk and Geert at the helm. Steeped in history yet ever innovative, the brewery continues to craft award-winning lambics that honor its rich heritage and the mystical microflora of Vlezenbeek—ensuring that every bottle tells a story of tradition, passion, and relentless innovation.
