Changes

Brasserie Vander Linden was founded in 1893 1895 by the Ghyssels brothers, and operated by three generations of the Vander Linden family from 1930 until closing in 2001. Brothers Jos and Omer Vander Linden were the last owners, and couldn't find a buyer for the brewery.

Vander Linden produced [[Duivels Bier]], a spontaneously fermented sour brown ale that was very popular regionally from 1952-2001. The brand and recipe were acquired from Pêtre Freres, another Halle brewery that had closed, where it had been brewed since 1883. In 2003, [[Brouwerij Boon|Frank Boon]] acquired the rights to the name and continues producing it today. <ref>[http://www.biernet.nl/bier/brouwerijen/belgie/vlaams-brabant/halle/vander-linden 3]</ref> Delplancq, p. 272. <ref name=Delplancq>[http://biere-et-brasseries-bruxelles.skynetblogs.be/archive/2009/06/25/les-brasseries-de-lambic-xviiie-xxe-s-3.html Delplancq, Thierry.
