Trappist beers
La Trappe is brewed in a traditional way, according to a recipe developed by the Trappist monks of Koningshoeven. Obviously, natural ingredients are used, such as hops, barley malt and yeast. The brewery gets the water for the beer from its own source. The yeasting process is done with a type of yeast that is most active at 18 to 20 degrees Celsius. This type of yeasting is known as ‘top yeasting’. The beer is bottled with yeast and sugar, which allows La Trappe to continue yeasting in the bottle, so a unique aroma develops.
Six special beers
Under the brand name La Trappe, Beer Brewery De Koningshoeven markets six special beers. In the USA and Canada, 'La Trappe' is marketed under the name 'Koningshoeven Trappist Ale'.
