Behind the centuries-old stone walls of a Benedictine monastery in northern France, monks are busy bringing a long-lost tradition back to life.
Between prayer, Gregorian chants and spiritual reflection, they work on producing France's only monastic beer.
"For me it's a major event, one of the most important since I began my career in 1973," said French beer expert Herve Marziou, who advised the monks as they resurrected the trade at the Abbey of Saint-Wandrille.
