Authentic La Trappe Trappist Beer
La Trappe is brewed within the walls of Koningshoeven Abbey in the Netherlands, where brewing has been part of monastery life since the 19th century.
The brewery produces a range of recognised Trappist beers, meaning the beer is brewed within a Trappist monastery under the supervision of the monastic community, with proceeds supporting the monastery and charitable causes.

La Trappe Dubbel, Tripel & Quadrupel
One of the reasons La Trappe is so popular is the variety within the range.
La Trappe Dubbel offers deeper malt flavours with caramel, dark fruit and a gently warming finish, making it a great choice for drinkers who enjoy richer Belgian-style ales.
La Trappe Tripel is stronger and brighter, typically combining fruity and spicy yeast character with a fuller body and a dry, warming finish.
For something even more intense, La Trappe Quadrupel delivers a deeper and more complex drinking experience, with dark fruit, caramelised malt and warming strength.
These styles are ideal for slow sipping and for anyone looking to explore traditional monastic beer.
La Trappe Blond & Lighter Trappist Beer
Not every Trappist beer needs to be dark or especially heavy.
La Trappe Blond offers a brighter, more approachable introduction to the brewery, with fruity, lightly spicy and malt-led character. It makes a great starting point for anyone discovering La Trappe for the first time.
From lighter blonde ales to richer dark beers, the La Trappe range offers plenty of variety without losing its distinctive monastic brewing identity.
What Does La Trappe Beer Taste Like?
The exact flavour depends on the style, but La Trappe beers are generally known for their balance of malt, fruit, spice and expressive yeast character.
Lighter beers can bring orchard fruit, citrus and subtle spice, while darker styles often move towards caramel, dried fruit, toasted malt and warming sweetness.
