Looks like a perfect day for #BeerSaturday 200.
Here in Belgium, the best beer comes from the monks. So having some beers in a convent seems to be history correct.
Trappist beer is brewed by Trappist monks. Thirteen monasteries—five in Belgium, two in the Netherlands, and one each in Austria, Italy, England, France, Spain and the United States—currently produce Trappist beer as recognized by the International Trappist Association.
In addition, the Authentic Trappist Product label is assigned to the beer products of twelve breweries. As of 2021, Achel is no longer recognized as a Trappist brewery because it does not have any living monks.
That is a very good point - maybe I should have gone inside the building to see if they left any behind.
