Le Trappiste
receives an award, Ambassadeur
d'Orval
 
ambassadeur d'orval  
At Le Trappiste our ethos has always been to serve the best beer that Belgium has to offer, in comfortable and relaxed surroundings. Over the last five years we have worked hard to create the right ambience to match the quality of the beer. We are extremely proud to announce that our efforts have not gone un-noticed. Le Trappiste has been chosen in to be an Ambassadeur d'Orval for 2010, by the Abbey Notre-Dame d'Orval. We are the only establishment in the North West of England to receive this prestigious honour. The award is only given to establishments who meet a strict criteria of Presence, Service and Creativity set by the Trappist Order of Monks.

 
award  
Martin receives the Ambassadeur d'Orval award from Monsieur François de Harenne. 'François' grandfather donated the land that the brewery is built on to the Brothers of the Monastery in the late 1920's. The brewery opened in 1931 to help provide funds for the up keep of the Monastery.
The plaque will take pride of place in the new bar, when we open.

 
It is not only the Trappist Order Monks who think that Le Trappiste is worthy of recognition. Mark Caygill wrote in Tim Webb's, 'Good Beer Guide to Belgium.

''A more authentic Belgian cafe than you will find in many towns in Belgium''.

We will continue to work hard and to source the best beers for your appreciation. We hope to see you all soon at Le Trappiste.
