The story behind it

The maker

The monks of St. Joseph's Abbey established the Spencer Brewery in 2013 to support their monastic community and charitable works. After years of studying monastic brewing techniques in Belgium, they created a state-of-the-art facility that became the first American Trappist brewery, combining European heritage with American craft innovation.

How it is made

Brewed by the monks of St. Joseph's Abbey in Spencer, Massachusetts, this beer represented a historic milestone as the first certified Trappist beer produced in the United States. The brewery & brewhouse operated in strict accordance with centuries-old monastic tradition, utilizing custom-designed equipment to craft authentic Belgian-style ales.
