Lindemans Brewery enjoyed great success at this year’s World Beer Awards, picking up two world’s bests, three country winner titles, and three gold, two silver, and two bronze medals.
Lindemans Oude Kriek Cuvée René, Lindemans Apple, and Lindemans Kriek 0,0% not only won gold in their respective categories, but were also named Belgian country winners.
Furthermore, Lindemans Kriek 0,0% was crowned world’s best in the no- and low-alcohol, sour and wild category, making it the best beer in the world in this category. There was also a world’s best award for Lindemans Apple.
“We are particularly pleased that our more modern beer innovations, including our alcohol-free beers, have achieved first-place awards and other medals, demonstrating that innovation and tradition can go hand in hand,” said a brewery spokesperson.
Geert Lindemans added: “With Lindemans Kriek 0,0%, we wanted to prove that you don’t have to compromise on flavour when brewing alcohol-free beer. The fact that it has now been crowned world’s best is a wonderful recognition and confirms that innovation and our tradition can go hand in hand perfectly.”
