History
In May 1839, the abbey received the brewing license signed by King Leopold I on April 19, 1839. In all likelihood, a test brew was already made that same month.

The name Trappist beer is legally protected and may only be used when the beer is produced within the monastery walls under the supervision of the monks. The proceeds are intended for the monks' livelihood and for the maintenance of the monastery. The remainder is spent on development projects and social causes.
Of all Belgian beers, only six may bear the name Trappist: Achel, Chimay, Orval, Rochefort, Westmalle, and Westvleteren.
