The world’s first and only Trappist white ale that continues to ferment slightly after bottling. Brewed using only water, wheat, and hops. No herbs are added. Saphir hops give the ale its citrusy aroma. A real thirst-quencher on a hot summer’s day that also makes for a delicious drink at any other time of the year.

Dubbel

This has a deep, reddish brown colour and attractive beige froth. The use of caramel malt gives it a gentle aromatic caramelised quality. It has a rich malty flavour with a touch of sweetness. Post-fermenting La Trappe Dubbel is a smooth drink, and yet has some real body and intense flavour to it.

Characteristics:
Unfiltered, top-fermenting Trappist ale.

Alcohol content of 7.0% Per 330mL
Serving temperature 8-12 °C
~~~

Tripel

It's aroma is slightly malty and estery. This ale owes its crisp and spicy character to the use of coriander and other spices and herbs, as well as to post-fermentation in the bottle. Despite its full, rich flavour, this out-of-the-ordinary ale still has a light and dry aftertaste with a touch of bitter finesse.

Characteristics:
Unfiltered, top-fermenting Trappist ale.

Alcohol content of 8.0% Per 330mL
Serving temperature 10-14 ℃
~~~

Quadrupel

This is La Trappe’s heaviest ale with a stunning amber colour. Its warm and intense flavour is rich and finely balanced. Malty sweet, slightly burnt, and pleasantly bitter with a sweet aftertaste. Quadrupel continues to ferment after bottling and offers aromas of banana, almond, vanilla and others.

Characteristics:
Unfiltered, top-fermenting Trappist ale.

Alcohol content of 10.0% Per 330mL
Serving temperature 10-14 ℃

Bockbier

This unique seasonal product is the world’s only Trappist bock ale. Brewed exclusively with natural ingredients, this ale post-ferments slightly in its bottle. It has a deep red colour, an intensely rich taste, and a malty aroma. Aromatic hop varieties and types of burnt malt render this ale its delicate bitterness that blends surprisingly well with its slightly sweet undertone.

Characteristics:
Unfiltered, top-fermenting, rich malty Trappist ale.

Alcohol content of 7.0% Per 330mL
Serving temperature 10-12 °C
~~~

Isid’or

Named after brother Isidorus, Koningshoeven Abbey’s first brewer. Brewed to mark the occasion of the Trappist brewery’s 125th anniversary in 2009, Isid’or was so well received that it earned itself a permanent place in La Trappe’s line-up. Unfiltered, slightly sweet amber ale with caramel nuts, which continues to ferment after bottling and has a rich, slightly bitter flavour, and a fruity aftertaste.

Characteristics:
Unfiltered, top-fermenting Trappist ale with symbolic value.

Alcohol content of 7.5% Per 330mL
Serving temperature 10-14 ℃
