Beerbrewing monks

[Marcel]

anyone here ever had a Trappist?

the trappist are an order of monks in Belgium and Holland, famous for the excelent ales they brew in their abbey's

I'm enjoying a nice Westmalle tripple right now, though the Roachford is by far my favorite.

It only gives you a nice picture of the Trappist abbey in Westmalle, Belgium.
