The importance of work in the life of a Trappist Monk
Zundert Trappist is a chestnut-coloured, top-fermenting beer that undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle. It contains 8% alcohol. They opted for a beer that we describe as ‘slightly unruly’. This means that Zundert Trappist is a beer that you have to take time to understand.
This Trappist beer has a highly promising aroma with a hint of herbs and spices. Initially Zundert Trappist was floral and slightly sweet. Give the beer some time and the character develops from light caramel to a lovely, dry and hoppy bitterness. In the long finish the bitterness melds with a pleasant spiciness in the background.
