Changes

Over time, Lindemans eventually abandoned the oak casks used to age lambics in favor of stainless steel tanks with wood shavings added in so that the lambic would still come in contact with wood, in accordance with Belgian law. As the brewery’s popularity continued to grow, more storage space was required. Plans to construct new buildings to house a bottling line and warehouses were completed and finally approved by 2002.<ref name=GeuzeKriek>Jef Van den Steen,[[Books#Geuze & Kriek: The Secret of Lambic Beer|Geuze & Kriek: The Secret of Lambic Beer]], 2012</ref>

The recent history of Lindemans reflects the revival of the lambic culture as a whole. In 1995 ,the Lindemans importer for the United States, Merchant du Vin, convinced René that enough demand existed for a traditional oude gueuze. Lindemans Oude Geuze Cuvée René was born. Over a decade later, Oude Kriek Cuvée René made its first apperance in 2006. The addition of twenty 100hl oak foudres (in compliance with European Union protections for lambic) in 2005-2006 saw the return of one of the most traditional aspects of lambic brewing and blending.<ref name=LambicLand>Tim Webb, Chris Pollard, Siobhan McGinn, [[Books#LambicLand: A Journey Round the Most Unusual Beers in the World|LambicLand: A Journey Round the Most Unusual Beers in the World]], 2010</ref><ref name=GeuzeKriek>Jef Van den Steen,[[Books#Geuze & Kriek: The Secret of Lambic Beer|Geuze & Kriek: The Secret of Lambic Beer]], 2012</ref><ref name=HoralLindemans>HORAL - Lindemans (Dutch), http://www.horal.be/en/members/lindemans-vlezenbeek</ref>
