Trappist Brewing

Trappist brewing refers to beer produced by Trappist monks in specific monasteries, following strict guidelines set by the International Trappist Association. These beers are known for their quality and traditional brewing methods, often using recipes that have been passed down through generations. To be labeled as "Trappist," the beer must be brewed within the walls of a monastery, and the proceeds typically support the monastery or charitable causes. There are a limited number of Trappist breweries worldwide, each known for distinct flavors and styles, contributing to the rich heritage of brewing in the monastic tradition.
