Trappistes Rochefort Info

The Notre-Dame de Saint-Remy abbey in Rochefort was founded in 1230. It belongs to the Cistercian Order of the Strict Observance, referred to as Trappists due to its historic links with the La Trappe abbey in France and its role in the reform of the Cistercian Order in the 17th century.

The abbey has been devestated several times during its history but true to the coat of arms of Dom Philippe Lefèvre "Curvata, resurgo" ("Bent, I stand up again"), it always found the strength to recover...

Living off their work and drawing from this the possibility of catering for a number of social needs, the monastic community of Saint-Remy chose to make its entry into the world of commerce on the agri-food market. This is how it came out that for centuries it has been producing a beer that has required great renown. The production is voluntarily limited.

This high quality beverage should be consumed with wisdom and moderation, so that it can encourage sharing and friendship.
