Brewing Bierhall “A little of Austria, a lot of Vermont” ® The History of the von Trapp Family The Story Behind the Story After fleeing Austria in 1938, our family toured the world as the Trapp Family Singers. The mountains of Vermont were reminiscent of Austria, and we bought our hilltop farm here in 1942. In 1950 we began hosting skiers during the winter, and the family home evolved into the Trapp Family Lodge. In the late 1960s I returned to manage the hotel with my mother Maria. We created the first commercial cross-country ski resort in the Americas in 1968, and began adding to the family's land holdings. After a fire destroyed the original Lodge in 1980, we built the new hotel, re-opening in 1983. Today the Trapp Family Lodge has 2,500 acres that provide world- class cross country skiing, mountain biking, hiking, and serenity in one of the most beautiful locations in Vermont. Our resort is still owned and managed by my children and me. For decades I dreamed of brewing crisp, clean craft lagers like the ones we tasted on trips back to Austria. In 2010, we opened our first humble brewery in a retrofitted bakery, and the response to our beer was tremendous. We built a new innovative brewery, with a Rolec brewhouse from Bavaria, and now distribute our beer throughout the northeast. Our beers have won multiple awards, and have helped drive the return of craft-brewed lagers in the United States. We hope you enjoy our beer, and your experience here at the Trapp Family Lodge.
