Inside the Golden Valley: Orval
Show notes
With an unwavering commitment to excellence and a compassionate Trappist heart, Orval may well be the most respected brewery in Belgium. Orval, with its one beer, is also reminiscent of a Zen - or Trappist - riddle. How can one thing, the one Orval beer, contain such multitudes?
Join Nate Cairney as he travels to the beautiful valley of Orval in a quest to see where one of the world’s best beers is made. Learn more about Orval’s fascinating history, forward-thinking monks, how a bottle can be beautiful, and the role that one gallant trout played in launching a legend.
