    Tips

    This source, which dates from 1892, supplies the drinking water with which the Trappist beer from the nearby Rochefort Abbey is brewed. The quality of the spring water from Rochefort Abbey gives this beer its very own taste... and that was the reason why the friars fiercely opposed the plans of the Lhoist group to develop the La Boverie lime quarry. deep. The company wanted to test pumping water from the underground water basin under the quarry, which is also the water that supplies the Tridaine spring. The fathers stated that Lhoist's activities will have consequences for the quality of the groundwater, and therefore also for the taste of their beer.

    In 2019, the civil court of Marche-en-Fammene ruled in favor of the monks. The court states, based on a document from 1833, that Lhoist may not touch the drainage of the spring water.
