Brewery Overview
Orval Trappist Ale is brewed and bottle-conditioned at the brewery inside Notre Dame d’Orval monastery, founded around 1070 AD in the pastoral Belgian countryside in the province of Luxembourg. After a turbulent history including being pillaged and burned more than once, the current abbey and brewery was rebuilt, on the same grounds. The present brewery was completed in 1929, at which time the skittle (pin)-shaped bottle and Orval chalice were introduced. The new brewery, bottle, and chalice were all designed by architect Henry Vaes. Abbaye Norte-Dame d’Orval is one of only 11 Trappist monasteries in the world that brew beer.
