The Extra from Westmalle may have a low alcohol content of 4.8%: it is surprisingly full-bodied in taste. Moreover, this golden blond Trappist beer has a very refreshing and thirst-quenching character. With its fruity notes and rich aromas, the Extra stands for a taste experience that is Westmalle through and through. This is one of the oldest beers of the Abbey of Westmalle. In 1836 the monks first brewed a tasty, light beer for their own use. The Extra originated from this tradition.
The brewery is very modern, but still completely adapted to the traditional brewing process. At Westmalle therefore aim for a balance between innovation and tradition . They apply the latest techniques, but still want to see, test and taste everything themselves. The brewery is located within the walls of the Trappist abbey. The brothers determine the policy and supervise its implementation. They use the income to live on and to reinvest in the brewery. What remains, they share with other abbeys of the order and donate to charities.
