About
In 1870 begint Willem Geenen met de brouwerij naast de schuur van zijn huis. In oktober van dat jaar levert hij het eerste bovengistende bier. In 1897 komt zoon Bernard naar Neer en raakt steeds meer betrokken bij de brouwerij. De naam wordt veranderd naar "Bierbrouwerij ‘De Lindeboom’ W. Geenen en Zoon”. In 1903 sterft Willem Geenen, 63 jaar. Zoon Bernard en dochter Christine nemen samen de leiding op zich. De naam blijft gehandhaafd. Na het overlijden van Willem sr. in 1978 nemen Ben en Willem jr. samen de leiding van Lindeboom op zich. In 2013 vindt de feestelijke opening van de nieuwe brouwzaal plaats in aanwezigheid van Mevrouw Geenen (3e generatie) en Bernd Geenen (5e generatie) alsmede Paul Joosten, algemeen directeur.
