Inspired by a 1567 painting depicting a joyous wedding ceremony where Kriek beers flowed abundantly, my meticulous brewmasters endeavored to create an oak-aged cherry Lambic that transcends time itself.
Brewed in 1822, it took over 150 years for my distinctive character to be embraced by palates around the world, making me one of the pioneering Belgian Lambics to achieve international acclaim. As I gracefully pour into your glass, my deep red hue evokes a sense of regality, crowned with a fluffy purplish-pink head that unveils the essence of freshly harvested cherries.
Like all Lambics, my journey begins with spontaneous fermentation, resulting in a unique interplay of sweetness and tartness. I sparkle with the vibrant notes of tart cherries, harmonizing with a subtle hint of red wine, ensuring that every sip is a cherished indulgence. Embrace the treat you truly deserve and allow me to enrapture your senses with the allure of a bygone era.

Lindemans' story began at an old Vlezenbeek farm with an ominous name, "Hof ter Kwade Wegen", which meant "the farm of bad roads". Don't worry though, the name wasn't a prophecy that dictated the brewery's tragic fate. In fact, the opposite happened; the brewery was able to brew its funky beers using spontaneous fermentation thanks to the hundreds of wild yeast strains floating around the little village. As a result, Lindemans is now one of the most respected breweries in Belgium, with its iconic lambics paving the way to immense success. With generation after generation of Lindemans guiding the brewery, Lindemans is now known for their unique and flavourful lambics; some may even say that its lambics are the best in the world!
