Living and carousing in “America’s Best Beer Drinking City” means we’ve seen out fair share of tap takeovers. But tonight’s visit from La Trappe de Koningshoeven at Alla Spina is, to the best of our knowledge, the first ever “Trappe Takeover.” From 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., Erwin Klijn, export manager for the brewery, which is the only Trappist brewery of just seven in existence that’s outside Belgium, to pour, and discuss beers brewed at the Dutch brewery. Flights, including Witte, Isid’or, Dubbel, and Quadrupel, will be available for $15. Full pours will be offered as well. The first lucky few to arrive will also receive La Trappe glasses that they can take home.
