SUMMARY

Oude Kriek has been brewed by the Lindemans brewery since 1961, renamed Oude Kriek Cuvée René in 2007, and imported into the US in 2016. In order to produce Oude Kriek Cuvée René, whole cherries (including pits) ferment in a lambic that is at least six months old in huge 10,000liter oak barrels called foudres. After six months, this traditional kriek is bottled in corked 750 ML bottles. Lindemans Oude Kriek Cuvee Rene is authentic "Oude Kriek," and every batch is blended by hand.
